Azure SQL database deployment

Azure DevOps Services | Azure DevOps Server 2022 - Azure DevOps Server 2019

You can automatically deploy your database updates to Azure SQL database after every successful build.

DACPAC

The simplest way to deploy a database is to create data-tier package or DACPAC. DACPACs can be used to package and deploy schema changes and data. You can create a DACPAC using the SQL database project in Visual Studio.

To deploy a DACPAC to an Azure SQL database, add the following snippet to your azure-pipelines.yml file.

- task: SqlAzureDacpacDeployment@1
  displayName: Execute Azure SQL : DacpacTask
  inputs:
    azureSubscription: '<Azure service connection>'
    ServerName: '<Database server name>'
    DatabaseName: '<Database name>'
    SqlUsername: '<SQL user name>'
    SqlPassword: '<SQL user password>'
    DacpacFile: '<Location of Dacpac file in $(Build.SourcesDirectory) after compilation>'

See also authentication information when using the Azure SQL Database Deployment task.

SQL scripts

Instead of using a DACPAC, you can also use SQL scripts to deploy your database. Here’s a simple example of a SQL script that creates an empty database.

  USE [main]
  GO
  IF NOT EXISTS (SELECT name FROM main.sys.databases WHERE name = N'DatabaseExample')
  CREATE DATABASE [DatabaseExample]
  GO

To run SQL scripts as part of a pipeline, you’ll need Azure PowerShell scripts to create and remove firewall rules in Azure. Without the firewall rules, the Azure Pipelines agent can’t communicate with Azure SQL Database.

The following PowerShell script creates firewall rules. You can check in this script as SetAzureFirewallRule.ps1 into your repository.

ARM

[CmdletBinding(DefaultParameterSetName = 'None')]
param
(
  [String] [Parameter(Mandatory = $true)] $ServerName,
  [String] [Parameter(Mandatory = $true)] $ResourceGroupName,
  [String] $FirewallRuleName = "AzureWebAppFirewall"
)
$agentIP = (New-Object net.webclient).downloadstring("https://api.ipify.org")
New-AzSqlServerFirewallRule -ResourceGroupName $ResourceGroupName -ServerName $ServerName -FirewallRuleName $FirewallRuleName -StartIPAddress $agentIP -EndIPAddress $agentIP

Classic

[CmdletBinding(DefaultParameterSetName = 'None')]
param
(
  [String] [Parameter(Mandatory = $true)] $ServerName,
  [String] [Parameter(Mandatory = $true)] $ResourceGroupName,
  [String] $FirewallRuleName = "AzureWebAppFirewall"
)

$ErrorActionPreference = 'Stop'

function New-AzureSQLServerFirewallRule {
  $agentIP = (New-Object net.webclient).downloadstring("https://api.ipify.org")
  New-AzureSqlDatabaseServerFirewallRule -StartIPAddress $agentIP -EndIPAddress $agentIP -RuleName $FirewallRuleName -ServerName $ServerName
}

function Update-AzureSQLServerFirewallRule{
  $agentIP= (New-Object net.webclient).downloadstring("https://api.ipify.org")
  Set-AzureSqlDatabaseServerFirewallRule -StartIPAddress $agentIP -EndIPAddress $agentIP -RuleName $FirewallRuleName -ServerName $ServerName
}

if ((Get-AzureSqlDatabaseServerFirewallRule -ServerName $ServerName -RuleName $FirewallRuleName -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue) -eq $null)
{
  New-AzureSQLServerFirewallRule
}
else
{
  Update-AzureSQLServerFirewallRule
}

The following PowerShell script removes firewall rules. You can check in this script as RemoveAzureFirewallRule.ps1 into your repository.

ARM

[CmdletBinding(DefaultParameterSetName = 'None')]
param
(
  [String] [Parameter(Mandatory = $true)] $ServerName,
  [String] [Parameter(Mandatory = $true)] $ResourceGroupName,
  [String] $FirewallRuleName = "AzureWebAppFirewall"
)
Remove-AzSqlServerFirewallRule -ServerName $ServerName -FirewallRuleName $FirewallRuleName -ResourceGroupName $ResourceGroupName

Classic

[CmdletBinding(DefaultParameterSetName = 'None')]
param
(
  [String] [Parameter(Mandatory = $true)] $ServerName,
  [String] [Parameter(Mandatory = $true)] $ResourceGroupName,
  [String] $FirewallRuleName = "AzureWebAppFirewall"
)

$ErrorActionPreference = 'Stop'

if ((Get-AzureSqlDatabaseServerFirewallRule -ServerName $ServerName -RuleName $FirewallRuleName -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue))
{
  Remove-AzureSqlDatabaseServerFirewallRule -RuleName $FirewallRuleName -ServerName $ServerName
}

Add the following to your azure-pipelines.yml file to run a SQL script.

variables:
  AzureSubscription: '<SERVICE_CONNECTION_NAME>'
  ResourceGroupName: '<RESOURCE_GROUP_NAME>'
  ServerName: '<DATABASE_SERVER_NAME>'
  ServerFqdn: '<DATABASE_FQDN>'
  DatabaseName: '<DATABASE_NAME>'
  AdminUser: '<DATABASE_USERNAME>'
  AdminPassword: '<DATABASE_PASSWORD>'
  SQLFile: '<LOCATION_OF_SQL_FILE_IN_$(Build.SourcesDirectory)>'

steps:
- task: AzurePowerShell@5
  displayName: 'Azure PowerShell script'
  inputs:
    azureSubscription: '$(AzureSubscription)'
    ScriptType: filePath
    ScriptPath: '$(Build.SourcesDirectory)\scripts\SetAzureFirewallRule.ps1'
    ScriptArguments: '-ServerName $(ServerName) -ResourceGroupName $(ResourceGroupName)'
    azurePowerShellVersion: LatestVersion

- task: PowerShell@2

    targetType: 'inline'
    script: |
      if (-not (Get-Module -ListAvailable -Name SqlServer)) {
          Install-Module -Name SqlServer -Force -AllowClobber
      }
  displayName: 'Install SqlServer module if not present'

- task: PowerShell@2

    targetType: 'inline'
    script: |
    Invoke-Sqlcmd -InputFile $(SQLFile) -ServerInstance $(ServerFqdn) -Database $(DatabaseName) -Username $(AdminUser) -Password $(AdminPassword)
  displayName: 'Run SQL script'

  displayName: 'Azure PowerShell script'
  inputs:
    azureSubscription: '$(AzureSubscription)'
    ScriptType: filePath
    ScriptPath: '$(Build.SourcesDirectory)\scripts\RemoveAzureFirewallRule.ps1'
    ScriptArguments: '-ServerName $(ServerName) -ResourceGroupName $(ResourceGroupName)'
    azurePowerShellVersion: LatestVersion

Azure service connection

The Azure SQL Database Deployment task is the primary mechanism to deploy a database to Azure. This task, as with other built-in Azure tasks, requires an Azure service connection as an input. The Azure service connection stores the credentials to connect from Azure Pipelines to Azure.

The easiest way to get started with this task is to be signed in as a user that owns both the Azure DevOps organization and the Azure subscription. In this case, you won't have to manually create the service connection. Otherwise, to learn how to create an Azure service connection, see Create an Azure service connection.

Deploying conditionally

You may choose to deploy only certain builds to your Azure database.

To do this in YAML, you can use one of these techniques:

  • Isolate the deployment steps into a separate job, and add a condition to that job.
  • Add a condition to the step.

The following example shows how to use step conditions to deploy only those builds that originate from main branch.

- task: SqlAzureDacpacDeployment@1
  condition: and(succeeded(), eq(variables['Build.SourceBranch'], 'refs/heads/main'))
  inputs:
    azureSubscription: '<Azure service connection>'
    ServerName: '<Database server name>'
    DatabaseName: '<Database name>'
    SqlUsername: '<SQL user name>'
    SqlPassword: '<SQL user password>'
    DacpacFile: '<Location of Dacpac file in $(Build.SourcesDirectory) after compilation>'

To learn more about conditions, see Specify conditions.

More SQL actions

SQL Azure Dacpac Deployment may not support all SQL server actions that you want to perform. In these cases, you can simply use PowerShell or command-line scripts to run the commands you need. This section shows some of the common use cases for invoking the SqlPackage.exe tool. As a prerequisite to running this tool, you must use a self-hosted agent and have the tool installed on your agent.

Note

If you execute SQLPackage from the folder where it is installed, you must prefix the path with & and wrap it in double-quotes.

Basic Syntax

<Path of SQLPackage.exe> <Arguments to SQLPackage.exe>

You can use any of the following SQL scripts depending on the action that you want to perform

Extract

Creates a database snapshot (.dacpac) file from a live SQL server or Microsoft Azure SQL Database.

Command Syntax:

SqlPackage.exe /TargetFile:"<Target location of dacpac file>" /Action:Extract
/SourceServerName:"<ServerName>.database.windows.net"
/SourceDatabaseName:"<DatabaseName>" /SourceUser:"<Username>" /SourcePassword:"<Password>"

or

SqlPackage.exe /action:Extract /tf:"<Target location of dacpac file>"
/SourceConnectionString:"Data Source=ServerName;Initial Catalog=DatabaseName;Integrated Security=SSPI;Persist Security Info=False;"

Example:

SqlPackage.exe /TargetFile:"C:\temp\test.dacpac" /Action:Extract /SourceServerName:"DemoSqlServer.database.windows.net.placeholder"
 /SourceDatabaseName:"Testdb" /SourceUser:"ajay" /SourcePassword:"SQLPassword"

Help:

sqlpackage.exe /Action:Extract /?

Publish

Incrementally updates a database schema to match the schema of a source .dacpac file. If the database doesn’t exist on the server, the publish operation will create it. Otherwise, an existing database will be updated.

Command Syntax:

SqlPackage.exe /SourceFile:"<Dacpac file location>" /Action:Publish /TargetServerName:"<ServerName>.database.windows.net"
/TargetDatabaseName:"<DatabaseName>" /TargetUser:"<Username>" /TargetPassword:"<Password> "

Example:

SqlPackage.exe /SourceFile:"E:\dacpac\ajyadb.dacpac" /Action:Publish /TargetServerName:"DemoSqlServer.database.windows.net.placeholder"
/TargetDatabaseName:"Testdb4" /TargetUser:"ajay" /TargetPassword:"SQLPassword"

Help:

sqlpackage.exe /Action:Publish /?

Export

Exports a live database, including database schema and user data, from SQL Server or Microsoft Azure SQL Database to a BACPAC package (.bacpac file).

Command Syntax:

SqlPackage.exe /TargetFile:"<Target location for bacpac file>" /Action:Export /SourceServerName:"<ServerName>.database.windows.net"
/SourceDatabaseName:"<DatabaseName>" /SourceUser:"<Username>" /SourcePassword:"<Password>"

Example:

SqlPackage.exe /TargetFile:"C:\temp\test.bacpac" /Action:Export /SourceServerName:"DemoSqlServer.database.windows.net.placeholder"
/SourceDatabaseName:"Testdb" /SourceUser:"ajay" /SourcePassword:"SQLPassword"

Help:

sqlpackage.exe /Action:Export /?

Import

Imports the schema and table data from a BACPAC package into a new user database in an instance of SQL Server or Microsoft Azure SQL Database.

Command Syntax:

SqlPackage.exe /SourceFile:"<Bacpac file location>" /Action:Import /TargetServerName:"<ServerName>.database.windows.net"
/TargetDatabaseName:"<DatabaseName>" /TargetUser:"<Username>" /TargetPassword:"<Password>"

Example:

SqlPackage.exe /SourceFile:"C:\temp\test.bacpac" /Action:Import /TargetServerName:"DemoSqlServer.database.windows.net.placeholder"
/TargetDatabaseName:"Testdb" /TargetUser:"ajay" /TargetPassword:"SQLPassword"

Help:

sqlpackage.exe /Action:Import /?

DeployReport

Creates an XML report of the changes that would be made by a publish action.

Command Syntax:
