direct link to download the offline installer for SQL Server 2019 evalution

Question

Hello,

I need the direct link for: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/evalcenter/download-sql-server-2019, but this link provides to me an exe file, and I need the direct link to the ISO to script.

Is not the express version, is standard, tks

Answer 1

Unfortunately, MSFT did not publish a link to the download officially, maybe you will find a download link if you have access to MSDN but the only way is the official download (you already get known about it)

For what do you need that download link? Automation? If you once downloaded it you might use that ISO file for all other solutions.

Hi @OsvaldoYariwake ,

Welcome to Microsoft Q&A!
Yes. As BjoernPeters said, you found a right link.
In addition, you can upgrade Microsoft SQL Server Evaluation Edition to Standard/Enterprise later.
Please refer to this article: http://woshub.com/upgrade-mssqlserver-evaluation-to-standard-enterprise/

Best regards,
Seeya
