Even though Azure SQL Database provides built-in backup, you may still want to create a local copy of your Azure SQL database. This could be handy for example when you want to keep database backup copy for free longer than allowed by Microsoft Azure built-in tools which is usually 7 to 35 days, depending on your service tier. Here we will explain in details how to backup Azure SQL Database to Local Machine.

There are several ways to download Azure database to your computer. The table below summarizes several key methods with pros, cons and usage scenarios. Click the name for more details about each method.

Azure SQL Database Firewall Setup

Since we are going to connect to Azure SQL Database from outside, we need to set up built-in firewall accordingly by adding IP address of the machine to which we want to download our database copy.

For that go to Azure Portal, select “SQL databases” > Your database > “Set server firewall”:

Then, add the new rule and don’t forget clicking “Save”. For convenience, you can click on “Add client IP” and the rule for the current IP address will be generated automatically:

How to Backup Azure SQL Database Using SQL Server Import and Export Wizard

Using built-in SSMS SQL Server Import and Export Wizard you can convert data between any sources, including ODBC, OLE DB, MS Access, MS Excel, and even flat file. This is exactly what we will use to copy data from Azure SQL Database to a local computer.

For starters, open SQL Server Management Studio and connect to your Azure SQL Database. If upon connecting you see the following message:

Cannot open server ‘azure_server_name’ requested by the login. Client with IP address ‘83.219.146.206’ is not allowed to access the server. To enable access, use the Windows Azure Management Portal or run sp_set_firewall_rule on the master database to create a firewall rule for this IP address or address range. It may take up to five minutes for this change to take effect.

then you need to add your IP address to Azure Firewall.

Following a successful connection, select the database you need (in this case its AdventureWorks), right-click of the mouse and select “Tasks” > “Import Data” (or “Export Data”):

This will prompt SQL Server Import and Export Wizard where you need to select “.Net Framework Data Provider for SqlServer” as a source and then enter the details of your Azure databasе:

The easiest way of doing that is to enter a ConnectionString which you can obtain on Azure Portal:

Don’t forget to change {your_username} and {your_password} in connection string into real values.

Clicking the “Next” button will trigger connection testing. If everything goes well you will be asked for the Destination parameters. From the drop-down list you will be able select not only SQL Server, but Excel, Access, and even Flat File as well:

If you want to export data to SQL Server, you can obtain a Connection String using the following query:

Following a successful connection to the destination, you will be prompted to select export of all data or only the result of a specific query. Selecting all data will require you to select tables for export. Selecting only query data will ask you to enter the query text.

The last step will run the export. A successful export screen will look similar to the one below:

If should be noted that during one of the interim steps you will be prompted to save the export as SSIS Package. This will enable export with SSIS tools, which are reviewed in the next section.

How to Backup Azure SQL Database Using SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS)

Sql Express 2019

SQL Server Integration Services is a powerful platform that allows to integrate and transform data between various applications. We have already faced it in the previous section when we exported Azure Database with SQL Server Import and Export Wizard.

SSIS allows running such export automatically (e.g. from a command line) if you have .dtsx file (SSIS Package) that contain all the necessary information about the export procedure. You can create such file with SSMS (as described above), and then run it either with DTEXEC.EXE command line utility, or with DTEXECUI application, or with SQL Server Agent Job.

For example, if you saved export parameters into AzureExport.dtsx, you can run it again by using the following command:

If you prefer a graphical interface, you can use The Execute Package Utility (DTEXECUI) app, although it requires Management Tools – Basic or Business Intelligence Studio to be installed by the SQL Server.

How to Export Azure SQL Database to BACPAC File

SQL Server Management Studio includes a simple option to export your Azure SQL Database into a .bacpac file. In this tutorial, we will show how to do it using SSMS.

Requirements

1. You will need SSMS Installed
2. Make sure that the firewall rule is enabled in the Azure SQL Server
3. An Azure SQL Database installed
4. Internet Connection

You will first need to connect to your Azure SQL Database using SSMS.

Once that you are in SSMS right click on your Azure SQL database and select Task and Export Data-tier Application:

This option will open a Wizard. In the first part, it will show an introduction. In the introduction, press Next.

In the Export Settings section go to Save to local disk and specify a local path in your machine to install the bacpac file.

The wizard will go to Summary to show all the settings configured. Press next in that section.

Eventually, if everything is OK will show a green status. The exporting process includes exporting data, schemas, tables, references and all other database components. Once that you receive the message, you can verify the bacpac of the file exported and used to recover the database to another SQL Server.

How to Backup Azure SQL Database Using SqlPackage Utility

The SqPackage Utility allows to import or export data using the command line. It can be very useful if we need to automate and program import and export tasks. This software is usually installed with SSMS or SSDT. To search it you can use in the cmd with the following commands (make sure to run the cd first):

The command will show the path of sqlpackage utility. The path is usually similar to this one:

The syntax for the SqlPackage to export is the following:

Let’s run a simple example:

We are exporting a file (Export) to an Azure SQL Server named sqlftpbackupserver.database.windows.net and the source database name is sqlftpbackup. The source user is daniel and the target file where we will export is in the c:sqlsqlftpbackup.bacpac sp is to specify the Azure SQL database password of the Azure SQL user. Finally, we will store in a file.

Common errors

A typical error is this one:

*** Error exporting database: Could not connect to database server.
Cannot open server ‘sqlftpbackupserver’ requested by the login. Client with IP address ‘181.114.103.171’ is not allowed to access the server. To enable access, use the Windows Azure Management Portal or run sp_set_firewall_rule on the master database to create a firewall rule for this IP address or address range. It may take up to five minutes for this change to take effect.

If this is your error, set the firewall. We already wrote how to do it at the beginning of this article.

Another typical error is this one:

*** Error exporting database: The database compatibility level ’12’ is not within the supported range of 80 to 130.

This is a problem with Azure. The level in SQL Server on premisses is between 80 and 130, however in Azure SQL, hte level is 12. To do this we will need to run the following T-SQL in Azure. You can use SSMS, but I prefer to use the Query Editor in the Portal because you do not need to install anything:

How to Backup Azure SQL Database Using BCP Utility

In this example, we will have a table named xxx and we want to export it to a file using the bcp utility (bulk copy program). In the command line check if you have the BCP utility. If you do not have it, you will receive the following message:

bcp is not a recognized as an external/internal command or operable program or batch file

If you receive this message, you can download the bcp utility here. Once installed, in the command line write this:

Sqlftpbackupdb is the database name. SalesLT is the schema and CustomerAddress is the table to export. We will export the table to a local file in the c: drive in the sqlfile folder and the name of the file will be cust.dat. -c is used to convert to char data type. -U is used to specify the user name and -S the Azure Server name.

The command line will ask for a password. Write the password.

A typical error message here is:

SQLState = 37000, NativeError = 40615

Error = [Microsoft][ODBC Driver 13 for SQL Server][SQL Server] Cannot open server ‘sqlftpbackupserver’ requested by the login. Client with IP address ‘181.114.102.51’ is not allowed to access the server. To enable access, use the Windows Azure Management Portal or run sp_set_firewall_rule on the master database to create a firewall rule for this IP address or address range. It may take up to five minutes for this change to take effect.

To solve this error, go to the Azure Portal and go to Firewall/Virtual Networks:

In Firewall/Virtual Networks press + Add client IP and press Save:

If everything is OK, you will be able to copy the files and it will show the number of rows copied:

Some tips:

• If there are millions of rows, you will need to specify the batch size. You can use the -b to specify the number of rows per batch.
• Make sure that the account in the command line has access to write data in the local folder specified.
• Also, the internet connection is important. If you do not have a good internet connection, the bcp operation may fail.
• To increase the performance, the hint TABLOCK may be useful (-h tablock) this hint locks the table during the bcp operations to improve the bcp performance.
• By default, the triggers are not fired in these operations.

How to Backup Azure SQL Database Using SqlBackupAndFtp

SqlBackupAndFtp is an extremely powerful tool to backup SQL databases to Azure, Dropbox, FTP a local file, Amazon S3, Box, Google Drive and other options. In this example, we will backup an Azure SQL database in a local file named sqlftpbackupdb201803082133.zip.

You will first need to download and install SqlBackupAndFtp. The application will ask the Server type. In this example, it is Azure SQL Database. It will ask the Azure SQL Server name, a user name and a password. This information is set when you create the Azure SQL Server.

The next step will be to select the database. In this example, the Azure SQL Database name is sqlftpbackupdb. Press Select databases and check the database. You can also see system databases (the master database in Azure SQL):

In “Store backups” section select destination, you can store in a local folder, a network folder, NAS, an FTP Server, Amazon S3, Dropbox, Google Drive, Onedrive, Box and many other options. In this example, we will store the backup in a locally.

The last step would be to Run the job. You can Run immediately with the “Run Now” option or you can schedule the backup. You can also receive emails if the backup succeed or if it fails. This is extremely useful if the backup process takes a long time because you don’t need to wait until it’s done as you will be notified in case of success or failure. It is not necessary to install SMTP-server or something extra to send these emails.

If everything goes OK, a zip file with the backup will be created.

How to Export Azure SQL Database from Azure Portal

You can save your Azure SQL Database in a BACPAC file, which is intrinsically a ZIP file containing the metadata and data from it. You can download the BACPAC file locally and later import it back to Azure or to a SQL Server on-premises installation. However, keep in mind that in order to guarantee transaction consistency a copy of your Azure Database will be created during the export process. This copy is treated as a second database and is billed as such. So, if your database is quite big it might take significant time and money to export it locally.

Let’s create an Azure Storage Account first. A Storage Account is a place in the cloud where you can store files, blobs, queues. It is redundant and secure. In order to create it, enter the Azure Portal, go to the search and write Storage and go to Storage accounts (classic). Note that you can only create bacpac in classic storage accounts:

It is now time to export the database backup to the Azure Storage account just created. Select your Azure database and then select export:

Specify a file name, make sure that the subscription is OK. Configure the login and password. In Configure Required settings, press the button to configure it:

Select the Classic Azure Storage account created before and press + to create a new container. Specify a name for the container and save the bacpac file in that container:

If you need to check the bacpac, click on the container just created:

Microsoft Sql Management Studio Free

In the container, you will be able to see the file. Right-click and press Download to have on your local machine:

Microsoft Sql Server Management Studio
