When I try to deploy ADF project from visual studio to azure, I get the error:
21.02.2017 13:03:32- Publishing Project 'MyProj.DataFactory'....
21.02.2017 13:03:32- Validating 10 json files
21.02.2017 13:03:37- Publishing Project 'MyProj.DataFactory' to Data Factory 'MyProjDataFactory'
21.02.2017 13:03:37- Starting upload of Dependency D:\Sources\MyProjDataFactory\Dependencies\ParseMyData.usql
The dependency is Azure Data Lake Analytics U-SQL script.
Where are the dependencies stored in azure?
UPDATE:
When i try to orchestrate a U-SQL stored proc instead of script the visual studio validator trows me the error on build:
You have a couple of options here.
1) Store the USQL file in Azure Blob Storage. In which case you'll need a linked service in your Azure Data Factory to blobs. Then upload the file manually or add the file to your Visual Studio project dependencies for data factory. Unfortunately this will mean the USQL becomes static in the ADF project and not linked in any way to your ADL project so be careful.
2) The simplest way is just to in line the USQL code directly in the ADF JSON. Again is means you'll need to manually refresh code from the ADL project.
3) My preferred approach... Create the USQL as a stored procedure in the Azure Data Lake Analytics service. Then reference the proc in the JSON using [database].[schema].[procname]. You can also pass parameters to the proc from ADF. For example the time slice. This also assumes you already have ADL setup as a linked service in ADF.
Hope this helps.
I have a blog post about the 3rd options and passing params here if your interested: http://www.purplefrogsystems.com/paul/2017/02/passing-parameters-to-u-sql-from-azure-data-factory/

I am doing a kind of comparison between a .bim files of UAT and PROD environment. I want to download the .bim file from Prod and UAT AAS (Azure Analysis Services) and perform the comparison. I am unable to do so. I tried Backup-ASBackup, it is not downloaded the actual .bim file in fact it creates some kind of compressed file in that I can't see the actual .bim file code.
I have seen few links but they were just performing a backup of data models for disaster management.
Please help me.
Unfortunately, you cannot take backup and download Azure Analysis Services Data models (.bim) file using powershell.
Reason: By default, Backup-ASDatabasecmdlet creates a <filename.abf> which does not allow you to extract the files because the file is compressed with Unicode encoding and this file can be only used to Restore-ASDatabase in case of disaster recovery.
You can download Azure Analysis Services Data models (.bim) file using Azure portal.
Select your Analysis services => Under Models => Select Manage => Select the models which you want to download the (.bim) file using Open in Visual studio.
The downloaded zip folder contains "SMPROJ" & "BIM" file.
So I am facing the following problem: I have a bunch of Azure Data Factory V1
Pipelines in one specific data factory, these pipelines, each have, around 400 data sets.
I need to move all of them to a new resource group / environment and put their json definition in a git repo.
So my questions is, how can I download all the pipelines definitions for a data factory and all the data sets definitions in their json format from Azure?
I don't want to click each one and copy-paste from the Azure UI, as it will take ages.
Call Rest API is good way for both V1 and V2. See this doc.
For ADF V1, you can try using Visual Studio.
Connect via Cloud Explorer to your data factory.
Select the data factory and choose Export to New Data Factory Project
This is documented on SQL Server Central.
Another thing to try is to have Azure script out an ARM template of the Data Factory.
My model has an entity with a property of type 'blob'. At the moment a database column of type "varbinary(max)" is generated. However, I want to load/save my blob from/to Azure blob storage. What property type do I have to use in my model? What configuration do I need in my web.config file? Do you have an example project?
In the CodeFluent.Runtime.Azure dll you will find the AzureBinaryLargeObject call and its related configuration AzureBinaryServicesEntityConfiguration.
See Azure BLOB
This should do the treak.
However it relies on the Microsoft.WindowsAzure.StorageClient.dll not included in newest version of Azure SDK. You can get it in this specific NuGet package
I need to know how can i build continuous deployment for Azure Data factory using VSTS. I know there is an Azure data factory deployment available in VSTS release. But I'm looking for other options using Powershell for deployment.
If anyone has already done anything specific to this provide the links.
This blog should get you started. I'm using a comparable method for deployment. Before deploying the JSON files using a PowerShell command, I edit them to insert environment specific values into the Data Factory definitions. You can pass these values as parameters from the TFS deployment-pipeline.
I want to know how to deploy an ADF from a Visual studio project file in which only the Resources (eg: Azure SQL ) are defined?
I want the linked services to be generated automatically for the specifies resources.
