Microsoft.SqlServer.Dac Namespace
Updated: April 20, 2017
This namespace provides classes you can use in your code to perform operations on DACPAC and BACPAC packages. These packages can be extracted and exported from existing databases or used to deploy and import new databases. DAPCAC packages can also be used to upgrade an existing database.

| Class | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() | BacPackage | Representation of the artifact that contains the definition and data of a data-tier application. |
![]() | DacAzureDatabaseSpecification | Defines optional parameters specific to a Windows Azure SQL database. |
![]() | DacDataProgressMessage | Data associated with an executing data operation to report status updates or errors related to progress. |
![]() | DacDeployOptions | Defines options that affect the behavior of package deployment to a database. |
![]() | DacExceptionMessage | Data associated with an error with exception information. |
![]() | DacExportOptions | Defines options that affect the behavior of package export from a database. |
![]() | DacExtractOptions | Defines options that affect the behavior of package extraction. |
![]() | DacImportOptions | Defines options that affect the behavior of package import to a database. |
![]() | DacMessage | Data associated with an executing operation to report status updates or errors. |
![]() | DacMessageEventArgs | Data associated with event raised as an executing operation reports status updates or errors. |
![]() | DacOperationProgressMessage | Progress message associated with the overal progress import or export operation. |
![]() | DacPackage | Representation of the artifact that contains the definition of a data-tier application. |
![]() | DacPackageExtensions | Provides extension methods to support manipulation of DacPackage objects. These extension methods work on an existing DacPackage. |
![]() | DacProfile | Contains settings related to a specific deployment configuration. |
![]() | DacProgressEventArgs | Data associated with event raised as an executing operation completes individual steps of processing. |
![]() | DacRetryMessage | Indicates that the DacFX API retried a command or connection due to a transient error returned by the server. |
![]() | DacServices | Provides operations to create and consume DAC packages represented by DacPackage instances. |
![]() | DacServicesException | Exception thrown for DAC service errors. |
![]() | DeploymentPropertyAliasAttribute | |
![]() | NestedDeploymentPropertyAttribute | |
![]() | PackageMetadata | Represents the metadata information that describes a package. |
![]() | PackageOptions | Defines advanced options and additional artifacts for package creation. |
![]() | PublishOptions | |
![]() | PublishResult | |
![]() | SourceInformation | Represents information about an item of interest in the model, for example a SqlRuleProblem. |
![]() | SqlConnectionStringBuilderHelper | |
![]() | TSqlModelUtils | Provides utility methods for the public model APIs. |
| Interface | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() | IUniversalAuthProvider | Implement this interface to create a string access token. This access token will be used to set the System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection.AccessToken for any SqlConnection instances created when connecting to a database. |
| Enumeration | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() | DacAzureEdition | List of possible editions for an Window sAzure SQL Databsae |
![]() | DacMessageType | Specifies the type (or severity) of message associated with a given event. |
![]() | DacOperationStatus | Specifies the state of a service operation. |
![]() | DacSchemaModelStorageType | Specifies the type of backing storage for a schema model. |
![]() | EngineVersion | Represents an option specifying what engine version should be set or allowed. Currently this option is only used in operations related to Microsoft Azure SQL Database. For instance this can be used during export to define the allowed engine version to validate against and whether the features of the database match the capabilities of that engine version. Similarly when defining creation options for a public TSqlModel in the extensibility APIs, this can be used to define what the expected engine version of the model should be set to. |
![]() | ObjectType |
