This driver uses the TDS protocol, which is enabled by default in SQL Server and Azure SQL Database. No extra configuration is required.

Prerequisites

    • If you don't already have Python, install the Python runtime and Python Package Index (PyPI) package manager from python.org.
    • Prefer to not use your own environment? Open as a devcontainer using GitHub Codespaces.
      • Open in GitHub Codespaces.
