Applies to: SQL Server Azure SQL Database Azure SQL Managed Instance Azure Synapse Analytics Analytics Platform System (PDW) SQL analytics endpoint in Microsoft Fabric Warehouse in Microsoft Fabric

Download OLE DB driver

Purpose

Starting with version 18.2.1, Microsoft OLE DB Driver for SQL Server allows OLE DB applications to connect to Azure SQL Database, Azure SQL Managed Instance, Azure Synapse Analytics, and Microsoft Fabric using a federated identity.

Microsoft Entra authentication methods include:

Username and password
Access token
Integrated authentication

Version 18.3.0 adds support for the following Microsoft Entra authentication methods:

Interactive authentication
Managed identity authentication (only from within an Azure Virtual Machine configured with Managed Identity)

Version 18.5.0 adds support for the following authentication method:

Microsoft Entra service principal authentication

Note

Using the following authentication modes with DataTypeCompatibility (or its corresponding property) set to 80 is not supported:

Microsoft Entra authentication using username and password
Microsoft Entra authentication using access token
Microsoft Entra integrated authentication
Microsoft Entra interactive authentication
Microsoft Entra managed identities authentication
Microsoft Entra service principal authentication

To use Microsoft Entra authentication, you must configure your Azure SQL data source. For more information, see Configure and manage Microsoft Entra authentication with Azure SQL.

Connection string keywords and properties

The following connection string keywords have been introduced to support Microsoft Entra authentication:

Connection string keyword	Connection property	Description
Access Token	`SSPROP_AUTH_ACCESS_TOKEN`	Specifies an access token to authenticate to Microsoft Entra ID.
Authentication	`SSPROP_AUTH_MODE`	Specifies authentication method to use.

For more information about the new keywords/properties, see the following pages:

Encryption and certificate validation

See Encryption and certificate validation for more information.

GUI additions

The driver graphical user interface has been enhanced to allow Microsoft Entra authentication. For more information, see:

Example connection strings

This section shows examples of new and existing connection string keywords to be used with IDataInitialize::GetDataSource and DBPROP_INIT_PROVIDERSTRING property.

    // Construct the connection string.
    std::wstring connString = L"Provider=MSOLEDBSQL19;Data Source=" + std::wstring(azureServer) + L";Initial Catalog=" + 
                              std::wstring(azureDatabase) + L";Authentication=ActiveDirectoryIntegrated;Use Encryption for Data=Mandatory;";

    hr = CoCreateInstance(CLSID_MSDAINITIALIZE, nullptr, CLSCTX_INPROC_SERVER, 
                          IID_IDataInitialize, reinterpret_cast<LPVOID*>(&pIDataInitialize));

    hr = pIDataInitialize->GetDataSource(nullptr, CLSCTX_INPROC_SERVER, connString.c_str(), 
                                         IID_IDBInitialize, reinterpret_cast<IUnknown**>(&pIDBInitialize));
