The “ ” sign indicates the solution has been added to source control, which – again – we may view the solution in our local repository using Windows Explorer:īut when we check our Azure DevOps SSIS Test project, we see a message indicating the remote repository is empty: “Dude!

The next step is to “Create a new project or solution” in this new local repository (it still has that new repository smell!): Create an SSIS ProjectĬlick the”Create a new project or solution” link in Team Explorer to create a project in our new local repository: We will get to the other folder and files in this directory later. ![]() When we cloned the SSIS Test Azure DevOps git repository, we created a local, linked copy of the SSIS Test Azure DevOps git repository in the specified folder – in my case, the local folder was C:\Users\A. Whenever I tell him something he doesn’t want to hear, Riley responds, “GOSH, Dad!” When I first saw this dialog, I said, “GOSH, Azure DevOps!” True story… What Just Happened? Note we cannot continue unless we clone the repository ( that’s why it was shown by default!): This reminds me of my younger son, Riley. The default option for the highlighted button is “Clone.” That’s a clue, cloning is our next step but for our introductory demonstration, we select Connect: Git works in a local repository which exists on the developer’s machine. Once connected to Azure DevOps via Azure security, you may select an account:Īfter connecting, you may select the project you created earlier: If so, you are prompted for credentials from Azure: You may need to add an account to Visual Studio’s connections: Note: You may need to disconnect a current connection first: Begin by clicking Team>Manage Connections: The next step is to connect SSDT to the Azure DevOps project. In a minute or so, the Overview>Summary page for the project displays: Connect to the Azure DevOps Project Are you using TFS on-premises but thinking of migrating to the cloud?

In this post I’m going to share how to configure the parts and then get them moving. ![]() There are a few moving parts to using SSIS with Azure DevOps. I can hear some of you thinking, “What does that have to do with SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS), Andy?” I’m glad you asked: Git is a distributed version control system (VCS) that is free and open source. One piece of advice Goggins offers is: face your challenges and fears. (Shameless plug: You can get a free audio book from Audible and help out the Data Driven Podcast if you sign up using this link.) The audio book is better than the hard copy because the co-authors chat in between (and during) chapters about the experiences recorded in the book. ![]() Goggins offers solid advice for, well… life. In my opinion, that’s not what I’m hearing when I listen to Can’t Hurt Me. I am not a fan of gratuitous profanity – profanity for the sake of profanity.
