Description

The New-AzSqlServer cmdlet creates an Azure SQL Database server.

Examples

Example 1: Create a new Azure SQL Database server

New-AzSqlServer -ResourceGroupName "ResourceGroup01" -Location "Central US" -ServerName "server01" -ServerVersion "12.0" -SqlAdministratorCredentials (Get-Credential)

ResourceGroupName        : resourcegroup01
ServerName               : server01
Location                 : Central US
SqlAdministratorLogin    : adminLogin
SqlAdministratorPassword :
ServerVersion            : 12.0
Tags                     :

This command creates a version 12 Azure SQL Database server.

Example 2: Create a new Azure SQL Database server with External (Microsoft Entra ID) Administrator, Microsoft Entra-only Authentication and no SqlAdministratorCredentials

New-AzSqlServer -ResourceGroupName "ResourceGroup01" -Location "Central US" -ServerName "server01" -ServerVersion "12.0" -ExternalAdminName DummyLogin -EnableActiveDirectoryOnlyAuthentication
ResourceGroupName        : resourcegroup01
ServerName               : server01
Location                 : Central US
SqlAdministratorLogin    : adminLogin
SqlAdministratorPassword :
ServerVersion            : 12.0
Tags                     :
Administrators           :

$val = Get-AzSqlServer -ResourceGroupName "ResourceGroup01" -ServerName "server01" -ExpandActiveDirectoryAdministrator
ResourceGroupName        : resourcegroup01
ServerName               : server01
Location                 : Central US
SqlAdministratorLogin    : randomLogin
SqlAdministratorPassword :
ServerVersion            : 12.0
Tags                     :
Administrators           : Microsoft.Azure.Management.Sql.Models.ServerExternalAdministrator

$val.Administrators
AdministratorType         : ActiveDirectory
PrincipalType             : Group
Login                     : DummyLogin
Sid                       : df7667b8-f9fd-4029-a0e3-b43c75ce9538
TenantId                  : 00001111-aaaa-2222-bbbb-3333cccc4444
AzureADOnlyAuthentication : True

This command creates a version 12 Azure SQL Database server with external administrator properties and Microsoft Entra-only authentication enabled.

Example 3: Create a new Azure SQL Database server with TDE CMK

New-AzSqlServer -ResourceGroupName "ResourceGroup01" -Location "East US" -ServerName "server01" -ServerVersion "12.0" -SqlAdministratorCredentials (Get-Credential) -AssignIdentity -IdentityType "UserAssigned" -PrimaryUserAssignedIdentityId "/subscriptions/xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx/resourceGroups/resourcegroup01/providers/Microsoft.ManagedIdentity/userAssignedIdentities/identity01" -UserAssignedIdentityId "/subscriptions/xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx/resourceGroups/resourcegroup01/providers/Microsoft.ManagedIdentity/userAssignedIdentities/identity01" -KeyId "https://contoso.vault.azure.net/keys/contosokey/01234567890123456789012345678901"

ResourceGroupName        : resourcegroup01
ServerName               : server01
Location                 : East US
SqlAdministratorLogin    : adminLogin
SqlAdministratorPassword :
ServerVersion            : 12.0
Tags                     :
Identity                 : Microsoft.Azure.Management.Sql.Models.ResourceIdentity
KeyId                    : https://contoso.vault.azure.net/keys/contosokey/01234567890123456789012345678901
PrimaryUserAssignedIdentityId : /subscriptions/xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx/resourceGroups/resourcegroup01/providers/Microsoft.ManagedIdentity/userAssignedIdentities/identity01

This command creates a version 12 Azure SQL Database server with TDE CMK enabled.
