How to Import Azure DevOps Data into SQL Server using SSIS


Easily back up Azure DevOps data to SQL Server using the SSIS components for Azure DevOps.

Using SQL Server as a backup for critical business data provides an essential safety net against loss. Backing up data to SQL Server enables business users to more easily connect that data with features like reporting, analytics, and more.

This example demonstrates how to use the CData SSIS Tasks for Azure DevOps inside of a SQL Server SSIS workflow to transfer Azure DevOps data into a Microsoft SQL Server database.

Add the Components

To get started, add a new Azure DevOps source and SQL Server ADO.NET destination to a new data flow task.

Create a New Connection Manager

Follow the steps below to save Azure DevOps connection properties in a connection manager.

  1. In the Connection Manager window, right-click and then click New Connection. The Add SSIS Connection Manager dialog is displayed.
  2. In the Connection Manager type menu, select AzureDevOps. The CData Azure DevOps Connection Manager is displayed.
  3. Configure connection properties. You can connect to your Azure DevOps account by providing the Organization and PersonalAccessToken.

    Obtaining a Personal Access Token

    A PersonalAccessToken is necessary for account authentication.

    To generate one, log in to your Azure DevOps Organization account and navigate to Profile -> Personal Access Tokens -> New Token. The generated token will be displayed.

    If you wish to authenticate to Azure DevOps using OAuth refer to the online Help documentation for an authentication guide.

Configure the Azure DevOps Source

Follow the steps below to specify the query to be used to extract Azure DevOps data.

  1. Double-click the Azure DevOps source to open the source component editor.
  2. In the Connection Manager menu, select the connection manager previously created.
  3. Specify the query to use for the data extraction. For example: SELECT Id, BuildNumber FROM Builds WHERE Reason = 'Manual'
  4. Close the Azure DevOps Source control and connect it to the ADO.NET Destination.

Configure the SQL Server Destination

Follow the steps below to specify the SQL server table to load the Azure DevOps data into.

  1. Open the ADO.NET Destination and add a New Connection. Enter your server and database information here.
  2. In the Data access mode menu, select "table or view".
  3. In the Table Or View menu, select the table or view to populate.
  4. Configure any properties you wish to on the Mappings screen.

Run the Project

You can now run the project. After the SSIS Task has finished executing, your database will be populated with Azure DevOps data.
