Deploy Integration Services (SSIS) Projects and Packages

Applies to: SQL Server SSIS Integration Runtime in Azure Data Factory

Integration Services supports two deployment models, the project deployment model and the legacy package deployment model. The project deployment model enables you to deploy your projects to the Integration Services server.

For more information about the legacy package deployment model, see Legacy Package Deployment (SSIS).

Note

The project deployment model was introduced in SQL Server 2012 Integration Services (SSIS). With this deployment model, you were not able to deploy one or more packages without deploying the whole project. SQL Server 2016 (13.x) Integration Services (SSIS) introduced the Incremental Package Deployment feature, which lets you deploy one or more packages without deploying the whole project.

Note

This article describes how to deploy SSIS packages in general, and how to deploy packages on premises. You can also deploy SSIS packages to the following platforms:

Compare Project Deployment Model and legacy Package Deployment Model

The type of deployment model that you choose for a project determines which development and administrative options are available for that project. The following table shows the differences and similarities between using the project deployment model and using the package deployment model.

When Using the Project Deployment Model When Using the legacy Package Deployment Model
A project is the unit of deployment. A package is the unit of deployment.
Parameters are used to assign values to package properties. Configurations are used to assign values to package properties.
A project, containing packages and parameters, is built to a project deployment file (.ispac extension). Packages (.dtsx extension) and configurations (.dtsConfig extension) are saved individually to the file system.
A project, containing packages and parameters, is deployed to the SSISDB catalog on an instance of SQL Server. Packages and configurations are copied to the file system on another computer. Packages can also be saved to the msdb database on an instance of SQL Server.
CLR integration is required on the database engine. CLR integration is not required on the database engine.
Environment-specific parameter values are stored in environment variables. Environment-specific configuration values are stored in configuration files.
Projects and packages in the catalog can be validated on the server before execution. You can use SQL Server Management Studio, stored procedures, or managed code to perform the validation. Packages are validated just before execution. You can also validate a package with dtExec or managed code.
Packages are executed by starting an execution on the database engine. A project identifier, explicit parameter values (optional), and environment references (optional) are assigned to an execution before it is started.

You can also execute packages using dtExec.
Packages are executed using the dtExec and DTExecUI execution utilities. Applicable configurations are identified by command-prompt arguments (optional).
During execution, events that are produced by the package are captured automatically and saved to the catalog. You can query these events with Transact-SQL views. During execution, events that are produced by a package are not captured automatically. A log provider must be added to the package to capture events.
Packages are run in a separate Windows process. Packages are run in a separate Windows process.
SQL Server Agent is used to schedule package execution. SQL Server Agent is used to schedule package execution.

Features of Project Deployment Model

The following table lists the features that are available to projects developed only for the project deployment model.

Feature Description
Parameters A parameter specifies the data that will be used by a package. You can scope parameters to the package level or project level with package parameters and project parameters, respectively. Parameters can be used in expressions or tasks. When the project is deployed to the catalog, you can assign a literal value for each parameter or use the default value that was assigned at design time. In place of a literal value, you can also reference an environment variable. Environment variable values are resolved at the time of package execution.
Environments An environment is a container of variables that can be referenced by Integration Services projects. Each project can have multiple environment references, but a single instance of package execution can only reference variables from a single environment. Environments allow you to organize the values that you assign to a package. For example, you might have environments named "Dev", "test", and "Production".
Environment variables An environment variable defines a literal value that can be assigned to a parameter during package execution. To use an environment variable, create an environment reference (in the project that corresponds to the environment having the parameter), assign a parameter value to the name of the environment variable, and specify the corresponding environment reference when you configure an instance of execution.
SSISDB catalog All Integration Services objects are stored and managed on an instance of SQL Server in a database referred to as the SSISDB catalog. The catalog allows you to use folders to organize your projects and environments. Each instance of SQL Server can have one catalog. Each catalog can have zero or more folders. Each folder can have zero or more projects and zero or more environments. A folder in the catalog can also be used as a boundary for permissions to Integration Services objects.
Catalog stored procedures and views A large number of stored procedures and views can be used to manage Integration Services objects in the catalog. For example, you can specify values to parameters and environment variables, create and start executions, and monitor catalog operations. You can even see exactly which values will be used by a package before execution starts.

Project Deployment

At the center of the project deployment model is the project deployment file (.ispac extension). The project deployment file is a self-contained unit of deployment that includes only the essential information about the packages and parameters in the project. The project deployment file does not capture all of the information contained in the Integration Services project file (.dtproj extension). For example, additional text files that you use for writing notes are not stored in the project deployment file and thus are not deployed to the catalog.

Permissions Required to Deploy SSIS Projects and Packages

If you change the SSIS service account from the default, you might have to give additional permissions to the non-default service account before you can deploy packages successfully. If the non-default service account doesn't have the required permissions, you might see the following error message.

A .NET Framework error occurred during execution of user-defined routine or aggregate "deploy_project_internal": System.ComponentModel.Win32Exception: A required privilege is not held by the client.

This error is typically the result of missing DCOM permissions. To fix the error, do the following:

  1. Open the Component Services console (or run Dcomcnfg.exe).
  2. In the Component Services console, expand Component Services > Computers > My Computer > DCOM Config.
  3. In the list, locate Microsoft SQL Server Integration Services xx.0 for the version of SQL Server that you're using. For example, SQL Server 2016 is version 13.
  4. Right-click and select Properties.
  5. In the Microsoft SQL Server Integration Services 13.0 Properties dialog box, select the Security tab.
  6. For each of the three sets of permissions - Launch and Activation, Access, and Configuration - select Customize, then select Edit to open the Permission dialog box.
  7. In the Permission dialog box, add the non-default service account and grant Allow permissions as required. Typically, an account has Local Launch and Local Activation permissions.
  8. Select OK twice, then close the Component Services console.

For more info about the error described in this section and about the permissions required by the SSIS service account, see the following blog post:

Deploy Projects to Integration Services Server

In the current release of Integration Services, you can deploy your projects to the Integration Services server. The Integration Services server enables you to manage packages, run packages, and configure runtime values for packages by using environments.

Note

As in earlier versions of Integration Services, in the current release you can also deploy your packages to an instance of SQL Server and use Integration Services service to run and manage the packages. You use the package deployment model. For more information, see Legacy Package Deployment (SSIS).

To deploy a project to the Integration Services server, complete the following tasks:

  1. Create an SSISDB catalog, if you haven't already. For more information, see SSIS Catalog.

  2. Convert the project to the project deployment model by running the Integration Services Project Conversion Wizard. For more information, see the following instructions: To convert a project to the project deployment model

    • If you created the project in SQL Server 2014 Integration Services (SSIS) or later, by default the project uses the project deployment model.

    • If you created the project in an earlier release of Integration Services, after you open the project file in Visual Studio, convert the project to the project deployment model.

      Note

      If the project contains one or more datasources, the datasources are removed when the project conversion is completed. To create a connection to a data source that the packages in the project can share, add a connection manager at the project level. For more information, see Add, Delete, or Share a Connection Manager in a Package.

      Depending on whether you run the Integration Services Project Conversion Wizard from Visual Studio or from SQL Server Management Studio, the wizard performs different conversion tasks.

      • If you run the wizard from Visual Studio, the packages contained in the project are converted from Integration Services 2005, 2008, or 2008 R2 to the format that is used by the current version of Integration Services. The original project (.dtproj) and package (.dtsx) files are upgraded.

      • If you run the wizard from SQL Server Management Studio, the wizard generates a project deployment file (.ispac) from the packages and configurations contained in the project. The original package (.dtsx) files are not upgraded.

        You can select an existing file or create a new file, in the Selection Destination page of the wizard.

        To upgrade package files when a project is converted, run the Integration Services Project Conversion Wizard from Visual Studio. To upgrade package files separately from a project conversion, run the Integration Services Project Conversion Wizard from SQL Server Management Studio and then run the SSIS Package Upgrade Wizard. If you upgrade the package files separately, ensure that you save the changes. Otherwise, when you convert the project to the project deployment model, any unsaved changes to the package are not converted.

    For more information on package upgrade, see Upgrade Integration Services Packages and Upgrade Integration Services Packages Using the SSIS Package Upgrade Wizard.

  3. Deploy the project to the Integration Services server. For more information, see the instructions below: To deploy a project to the Integration Services Server.

  4. (Optional) Create an environment for the deployed project.

  2. Right-click and select Deploy Package. The Deployment Wizard opens with the selected packages configured as the source packages.

  3. Complete the wizard. Follow the remaining steps described in Package Deployment Model.

Deploy packages by using the deploy_packages stored procedure

You can use the [catalog].[deploy_packages] stored procedure to deploy one or more SSIS packages to the SSIS Catalog. The following code example demonstrates the use of this stored procedure to deploy packages to an SSIS server. For more info, see catalog.deploy_packages.

private static void Main(string[] args)
{
    // Connection string to SSISDB
    var connectionString = "Data Source=.;Initial Catalog=SSISDB;Integrated Security=True;MultipleActiveResultSets=false";

    using (var sqlConnection = new SqlConnection(connectionString))
    {
        sqlConnection.Open();

        var sqlCommand = new SqlCommand
        {
            Connection = sqlConnection,
            CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure,
            CommandText = "[catalog].[deploy_packages]"
        };

        var packageData = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(File.ReadAllText(@"C:\Test\Package.dtsx"));

        // DataTable: name is the package name without extension and package_data is byte array of package.
        var packageTable = new DataTable();
        packageTable.Columns.Add("name", typeof(string));
        packageTable.Columns.Add("package_data", typeof(byte[]));
        packageTable.Rows.Add("Package", packageData);

        // Set the destination project and folder which is named Folder and Project.
        sqlCommand.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("@folder_name", SqlDbType.NVarChar, ParameterDirection.Input, "Folder", -1));
        sqlCommand.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("@project_name", SqlDbType.NVarChar, ParameterDirection.Input, "Project", -1));
        sqlCommand.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("@packages_table", SqlDbType.Structured, ParameterDirection.Input, packageTable, -1));

        var result = sqlCommand.Parameters.Add("RetVal", SqlDbType.Int);
        result.Direction = ParameterDirection.ReturnValue;

        sqlCommand.ExecuteNonQuery();
    }
}

Deploy packages using the Management Object Model API

The following code example demonstrates the use of the Management Object Model API to deploy packages to server.

static void Main()
 {
     // Before deploying packages, make sure the destination project exists in SSISDB.
     var connectionString = "Data Source=.;Integrated Security=True;MultipleActiveResultSets=false";
     var catalogName = "SSISDB";
     var folderName = "Folder";
     var projectName = "Project";

     // Get the folder instance.
     var sqlConnection = new SqlConnection(connectionString);
     var store = new Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.IntegrationServices.IntegrationServices(sqlConnection);
     var folder = store.Catalogs[catalogName].Folders[folderName];

     // Key is package name without extension and value is package binaries.
     var packageDict = new Dictionary<string, string>();

     var packageData = File.ReadAllText(@"C:\Folder\Package.dtsx");
     packageDict.Add("Package", packageData);

     // Deploy package to the destination project.
     folder.DeployPackages(projectName, packageDict);
 }

Convert to Package Deployment Model Dialog Box

The Convert to Package Deployment Model command allows you to convert a package to the package deployment model after checking the project and each package in the project for compatibility with that model. If a package uses features unique to the project deployment model, such as parameters, then the package cannot be converted.

Converting a package to the package deployment model requires two steps.

  1. When you select the Convert to Package Deployment Model command from the Project menu, the project and each package are checked for compatibility with this model. The results are displayed in the Results table.

    If the project or a package fails the compatibility test, select Failed in the Result column for more information. Select Save Report to save a copy of this information to a text file.

  2. If the project and all packages pass the compatibility test, then select OK to convert the package.

Note

To convert a project to the project deployment model, use the Integration Services Project Conversion Wizard. For more information, see Integration Services Project Conversion Wizard.

Integration Services Deployment Wizard

The Integration Services Deployment Wizard supports two deployment models:

  • Project deployment model
  • Package deployment model

The Project Deployment model allows you to deploy a SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) project as a single unit to the SSIS Catalog.

The Package Deployment model allows you to deploy packages that you have updated to the SSIS Catalog without having to deploy the whole project.

Note

The Wizard default deployment is the Project Deployment model.

Launch the wizard

Launch the wizard by either:

  • Typing "SQL Server Deployment Wizard" in Windows Search

or

  • Search for the executable file ISDeploymentWizard.exe under the SQL Server installation folder; for example: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SQL Server\130\DTS\Binn".

Note

If you see the Introduction page, select Next to switch to the Select Source page.

The settings on this page are different for each deployment model. Follow steps in the Project Deployment Model section or Package Deployment Model section based on the model you selected in this page.

Project Deployment Model

Select Source

To deploy a project deployment file that you created, select Project deployment file and enter the path to the .ispac file. To deploy a project that resides in the Integration Services catalog, select Integration Services catalog, and then enter the server name and the path to the project in the catalog. Select Next to see the Select Destination page.

Select Destination

To select the destination folder for the project in the Integration Services catalog, enter the SQL Server instance or select Browse to select from a list of servers. Enter the project path in SSISDB or select Browse to select it. Select Next to see the Review page.

Review (and deploy)

The page allows you to review the settings you have selected. You can change your selections by selecting Previous, or by selecting any of the steps in the left pane. Select Deploy to start the deployment process.

Results

After the deployment process is complete, you should see the Results page. This page displays the success or failure of each action. If the action fails, select the Failed in the Result column to display an explanation of the error. Select Save Report... to save the results to an XML file or Select Close to exit the wizard.

Package Deployment Model

Select Source

The Select Source page in the Integration Services Deployment Wizard shows settings specific to the package deployment model when you selected the Package Deployment option for the deployment model.

To select the source packages, select the Browse... button to select the folder that contains the packages or type the folder path in the Packages folder path textbox and select Refresh button at the bottom of the page. Now, you should see all the packages in the specified folder in the list box. By default, all the packages are selected. Select the checkbox in the first column to choose which packages you want to be deployed to server.

Refer to the Status and Message columns to verify the status of package. If the status is set to Ready or Warning, the deployment wizard would not block the deployment process. If the status is set to Error, the wizard wouldn't proceed to deploy the selected packages. To view the detailed Warning or Error messages, select the link in the Message column.

If the sensitive data or package data are encrypted with a password, type the password in the Password column and select the Refresh button to verify whether the password is accepted. If the password is correct, the status would change to Ready and the warning message will disappear. If there are multiple packages with the same password, select the packages with the same encryption password, type the password in the Password textbox and select the Apply button. The password would be applied to the selected packages.

If the status of all the selected packages is not set to Error, the Next button will be enabled so that you can continue with the package deployment process.

Select Destination

After selecting package sources, select the Next button to switch to the Select Destination page. Packages must be deployed to a project in the SSIS Catalog (SSISDB). Before deploying packages, ensure the destination project already exists in the SSIS Catalog. Create an empty project if a project does not exist. In the Select Destination page, type the server name in the Server Name textbox or select the Browse... button to select a server instance. Then select the Browse... button next to the Path textbox to specify the destination project. If the project does not exist, select the New project... button to create an empty project as the destination project. The project must be created under a folder.

Review and deploy

Select Next on the Select Destination page to switch to the Review page in the Integration Services Deployment Wizard. In the review page, review the summary report about the deployment action. After the verification, select the Deploy button to perform the deployment action.

Results

After the deployment is complete, you should see the Results page. On the Results page, review results from each step in the deployment process. Select Save Report to save the deployment report or Close to the close the wizard.

Create and Map a Server Environment

You create a server environment to specify runtime values for packages contained in a project you've deployed to the Integration Services server. You can then map the environment variables to parameters, for a specific package, for entry-point packages, or for all the packages in a given project. An entry-point package is typically a parent package that executes a child package.

Important

For a given execution, a package can execute only with the values contained in a single server environment.

You can query views for a list of server environments, environment references, and environment variables. You can also call stored procedures to add, delete, and modify environments, environment references, and environment variables. For more information, see the Server Environments, Server Variables, and Server Environment References section in SSIS Catalog.

To create and use a server environment

  1. In Management Studio, expand the Integration Services Catalogs SSISDB node in Object Explorer, and locate the Environments folder of the project for which you want to create an environment.

  2. Right-click the Environments folder, and then select Create Environment.

  3. Type a name for the environment and optionally add a description. Select OK.

  4. Right-click the new environment and then select Properties.

  5. On the Variables page, do the following to add a variable.

    1. Select the Type for the variable. The name of the variable does not need to match the name of the project parameter that you map to the variable.

    2. Enter an optional Description for the variable.

    3. Enter the Value for the environment variable.

      For information about the rules for environment variable names, see the Environment Variable section in SSIS Catalog.

    4. Indicate whether the variable contains sensitive value, by selecting or clearing the Sensitive checkbox.

      If you select Sensitive, the variable value does not display in the Value field.

      Sensitive values are encrypted in the SSISDB catalog. For more information about the encryption, see SSIS Catalog.

  6. On the Permissions page, grant or deny permissions for selected users and roles by doing the following.

    1. Select Browse, and then select one or more users and roles in the Browse All Principals dialog box.

    2. In the Logins or roles area, select the user or role that you want to grant or deny permissions for.

    3. In the Explicit area, select Grant or Deny next to each permission.

  7. To script the environment, select Script. By default, the script displays in a new Query Editor window.

    Tip

    You need to select Script after you've made one or changes to the environment properties, such as adding a variable, and before you select OK in the Environment Properties dialog box. Otherwise, a script is not generated.

  8. Select OK to save your changes to the environment properties.

  9. Under the SSISDB node in Object Explorer, expand the Projects folder, right-click the project, and then select Configure.

  10. On the References page, select Add to add an environment, and then select OK to save the reference to the environment.

  11. Right-click the project again, and then select Configure.

  12. To map the environment variable to a parameter that you added to the package at design-time or to a parameter that was generated when you converted the Integration Services project to the project deployment model, do the following:

    1. In the Parameters tab on the Parameters page, select the browse button next to the Value field.

    2. Select Use environment variable, and then select the environment variable you created.

  13. To map the environment variable to a connection manager property, do the following. Parameters are automatically generated on the SSIS server for the connection manager properties.

    1. In the Connection Managers tab on the Parameters page, select the browse button next to the Value field.

    2. Select Use environment variable, and then select the environment variable you created.

  14. Select OK twice to save your changes.

Deploy and Execute SSIS Packages using Stored Procedures

When you configure an Integration Services project to use the project deployment model, you can use stored procedures in the SSIS catalog to deploy the project and execute the packages. For information about the project deployment model, see Deployment of Projects and Packages.

You can also use SQL Server Management Studio or SQL Server Data Tools (SSDT) to deploy the project and execute the packages. For more information, see the topics in the See Also section.

Tip

You can easily generate the Transact-SQL statements for the stored procedures listed in the procedure below, with the exception of catalog.deploy_project, by doing the following:

  1. In SQL Server Management Studio, expand the Integration Services Catalogs node in Object Explorer and navigate to the package you want to execute.
  2. Right-click the package, and then select Execute.
  3. As needed, set parameters values, connection manager properties, and options in the Advanced tab such as the logging level.

For more information about logging levels, see Enable Logging for Package Execution on the SSIS Server.
4. Before selecting OK to execute the package, select Script. The Transact-SQL appears in a Query Editor window in SQL Server Management Studio.

To deploy and execute a package using stored procedures

  1. Call catalog.deploy_project (SSISDB Database) to deploy the Integration Services project that contains the package to the Integration Services server.

    To retrieve the binary contents of the Integration Services project deployment file, for the @project_stream parameter_, use a SELECT statement with the OPENROWSET function and the BULK rowset provider. The BULK rowset provider enables you to read data from a file. The SINGLE_BLOB argument for the BULK rowset provider returns the contents of the data file as a single-row, single-column rowset of type varbinary(max). For more information, see OPENROWSET (Transact-SQL).

    In the following example, the SSISPackages_ProjectDeployment project is deployed to the SSIS Packages folder on the Integration Services server. The binary data is read from the project file (SSISPackage_ProjectDeployment.ispac) and is stored in the _@ProjectBinary parameter of type varbinary(max). The @ProjectBinary parameter value is assigned to the @project_stream parameter.

    DECLARE @ProjectBinary as varbinary(max)
    DECLARE @operation_id as bigint
    Set @ProjectBinary = (SELECT * FROM OPENROWSET(BULK 'C:\MyProjects\ SSISPackage_ProjectDeployment.ispac', SINGLE_BLOB) as BinaryData)
    
    Exec catalog.deploy_project @folder_name = 'SSIS Packages', @project_name = 'DeployViaStoredProc_SSIS', @Project_Stream = @ProjectBinary, @operation_id = @operation_id out
    
  2. Call catalog.create_execution (SSISDB Database) to create an instance of the package execution, and optionally call catalog.set_execution_parameter_value (SSISDB Database) to set runtime parameter values.

    In the following example, catalog.create_execution creates an instance of execution for package.dtsx that is contained in the SSISPackage_ProjectDeployment project. The project is located in the SSIS Packages folder. The execution_id returned by the stored procedure is used in the call to catalog.set_execution_parameter_value. This second stored procedure sets the LOGGING_LEVEL parameter to 3 (verbose logging) and sets a package parameter named Parameter1 to a value of 1.

    For parameters such as LOGGING_LEVEL the object_type value is 50. For package parameters the object_type value is 30.

    Declare @execution_id bigint
    EXEC [SSISDB].[catalog].[create_execution] @package_name=N'Package.dtsx', @execution_id=@execution_id OUTPUT, @folder_name=N'SSIS Packages', @project_name=N'SSISPackage_ProjectDeployment', @use32bitruntime=False, @reference_id=1
    
    Select @execution_id
    DECLARE @var0 smallint = 3
    EXEC [SSISDB].[catalog].[set_execution_parameter_value] @execution_id,  @object_type=50, @parameter_name=N'LOGGING_LEVEL', @parameter_value=@var0
    
    DECLARE @var1 int = 1
    EXEC [SSISDB].[catalog].[set_execution_parameter_value] @execution_id,  @object_type=30, @parameter_name=N'Parameter1', @parameter_value=@var1
    
    GO
    
  3. Call catalog.start_execution (SSISDB Database) to execute the package.

    In the following example, a call to catalog.start_execution is added to the Transact-SQL to start the package execution. The execution_id returned by the catalog.create_execution stored procedure is used.

    Declare @execution_id bigint
    EXEC [SSISDB].[catalog].[create_execution] @package_name=N'Package.dtsx', @execution_id=@execution_id OUTPUT, @folder_name=N'SSIS Packages', @project_name=N'SSISPackage_ProjectDeployment', @use32bitruntime=False, @reference_id=1
    
    Select @execution_id
    DECLARE @var0 smallint = 3
    EXEC [SSISDB].[catalog].[set_execution_parameter_value] @execution_id,  @object_type=50, @parameter_name=N'LOGGING_LEVEL', @parameter_value=@var0
    
    DECLARE @var1 int = 1
    EXEC [SSISDB].[catalog].[set_execution_parameter_value] @execution_id,  @object_type=30, @parameter_name=N'Parameter1', @parameter_value=@var1
    
    EXEC [SSISDB].[catalog].[start_execution] @execution_id
    GO
    

To deploy a project from server to server using stored procedures

You can deploy a project from server to server by using the catalog.get_project (SSISDB Database) and catalog.deploy_project (SSISDB Database) stored procedures.

You need to do the following before running the stored procedures.

  • Create a linked server object. For more information, see Create Linked Servers (SQL Server Database Engine).

    On the Server Options page of the Linked Server Properties dialog box, set RPC and RPC Out to True. Also, set Enable Promotion of Distributed Transactions for RPC to False.

  • Enable dynamic parameters for the provider you selected for the linked server, by expanding the Providers node under Linked Servers in Object Explorer, right-clicking the provider, and then selecting Properties. Select Enable next to Dynamic parameter.

  • Confirm that the Distributed Transaction Coordinator (DTC) is started on both servers.

Call catalog.get_project to return the binary for the project, and then call catalog.deploy_project. The value returned by catalog.get_project is inserted into a table variable of type varbinary(max). The linked server can't return results that are varbinary(max).

In the following example, catalog.get_project returns a binary for the SSISPackages project on the linked server. The catalog.deploy_project deploys the project to the local server, to the folder named DestFolder.

declare @resultsTableVar table (
project_binary varbinary(max)
)

INSERT @resultsTableVar (project_binary)
EXECUTE [MyLinkedServer].[SSISDB].[catalog].[get_project] 'Packages', 'SSISPackages'

declare @project_binary varbinary(max)
select @project_binary = project_binary from @resultsTableVar

exec [SSISDB].[CATALOG].[deploy_project] 'DestFolder', 'SSISPackages', @project_binary

Integration Services Project Conversion Wizard

The Integration Services Project Conversion Wizard converts a project to the project deployment model.

Note

If the project contains one or more datasources, the datasources are removed when the project conversion is completed. To create a connection to a data source that can be shared by the packages in the project, add a connection manager at the project level. For more information, see Add, Delete, or Share a Connection Manager in a Package.
