I have created one database from ssms 2017 version on azure sql server with .bacpac file, but when I am trying to access it from azure portal it is not showing under azure sql server instance. But when I am login into that instance with SSMS it is showing that database. Need help on this, can anyone face this problem.
regards
Sandy
I did the same operation successfully. I imported a new database with a BACPAC file to my Azure SQL Database. Please reference my steps:
connect to my Azure SQL Database instance with SSMS, right-click Databsse, choose Import Data-tire Application. I import the DB2 database from my BACPAC files.
Import Settings.
Complete the import. After the import job finished, we can see the database DB2.
Check the database on Azure Portal. Login my portal, choose the SQL server which our database instance host on in home page.
Click in the SQL server and we can find the new database DB2.
My SSMS version is the latest v17.9.1.
Hope this helps.
From azure portal I raise ticket regarding this issue, they solved my problem. Added my Azure Sql database to my subscription. During .bacpac file restore some issue occur due to which it wasn't show on portal. Also I am able to delete that datbase from SSMS generated delete script for database.

I just finished my first website on Visual Studio, using LocalDB with 30 tables and Identity. Then, I tried to move this website to Azure and I just got success to move the app. Unfortunately, the LocalDB is not recognized by Azure. What do I need to do to upload the database schemes and data?
You can migrate your on-premises database to Azure SQL database using SQL Server 2012(SQL Server 2017 and 2019 might face compatibility issues) and SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS).
Firstly, you need to attach your existing database with SSMS. Follow the link.
Follow the below steps in SSMS once your database attached.
Right click on the database you want to migrate. Select Task and from dropdown options select Deploy Database to Microsoft Azure SQL Database
Click on Next on pop-up window. On the very next window you will get options to connect your Azure SQL Server. Provide your Azure SQL server name, server credentials and click on Connect.
Provide the database name you want to give in Azure SQL Server. Fill the Azure SQL Database settings as per your requirement. Click on Next.
Lastly, you will get a summary of all the settings you have done. Click on Finish to migrate the database.
Once your database migrated successfully, you will get summary with Operation Complete message. Click on close. Your database has been migrated.
Check on your Azure Portal to check the migrated database.
I have a database in the SQL Server installed on Azure VM. DB Size is 2 GB.
How and what is the best approach to move all data into Azure SQL PAAS Service?
While the method posted by #Harris Xu is absolutely correct, I am adding the issues which I faced when I migrated my 500+ GB SQL Server DB from Azure VM to PaaS using .bacpac method.
Azure SQL DB is in a away limited when compared to On-prim SQL Server or SQL Server on VM's.
You will not face these issues while creating the .bacpac file but when you try to import, it might give some of the following compatibility issues.
Master Keys , Symmetric Keys, Service Queues and certificates cannot
be migrated to cloud. Drop them before preparing bacpac.
Drop orphaned Users.
If you are using XP_CMDSHELL, Trace Flags, DBCC commands or column store indexes, you got to remove them too.
Cross DB Queries are not allowed on Azure SQL DB. Remove all occurrences of ..
If you are calling an API from your stored proc then that too is not possible in Azure SQL DB. As a workaround you can use Logic Apps on Azure.
Moreover, Microsoft Migration assistant can help you find compatibility issues before hand too. You can download it here.
NOTE : This no way the full list of issues, I faced them because I was using all above features, if you are not using them you will not face them.
SQL Migration using data-tier application export/import (BACPAC)
The BACPAC file encapsulates the database schema as well as the data stored in a database application that can be simple imported to an Azure SQL Database.
Workloads using the source database need to be taken offline during the export process to ensure that the exported BACPAC file contains all data in a complete and consistent state.
Export to bacpac file in SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS)
You can follow this post.
Open and connect database file in SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS).
To export a database file, right click on the name of the database. In the context menu, select Tasks > Export Data-tier Application.
The option will open the wizard. Click Next> Introduction page and go to the Export Settings.

I am working on an ASP.NET project which accessing a remote SQL Server database. My objective is to set up this remote database on my local system.
I have tried 2 ways, but I'm facing problems both ways:
(1) Using SQL Server import and export wizard.
I get an error saying that the connection state is closed, but I am able to fetch all database tables of remote database:
(2) Schema and Data comparison from SQL Server object explorer inside of Visual Studio.
Here I get an error in that database user-related issues are showing. User or group not found:
I have tried other things in the last 4 days also but not found any clue to solve it. I am new to ASP.NET and SQL. Please help. Any helpful answer will always be appreciated. Thanks.
I have tried the Dennis1679's answer, but the following issues are coming.
One or more unsupported elements were found in the schema used as of
a data package. Error SQL71564:Error validating element[username]:
The element[username] has been orphaned from its login and cannot be
deployed.
Install SQL Server Management Studio, connect to the remote database, right-click on the database, choose export data-tier application. Then connect to your local instance and import data-tier application.
Connect to the remote database:
Right-click on the database choose export data-tier application:
Follow the wizard and save the .bacpac somewhere
Connect to your local SQL Server (localdb)\MSSQLLocalDB
Choose Import data-tier application
Select the previously saved .bacpac and import it. Now your local instance should have the same database
How to load my SQL database created in MySQL Workbench on Azure cloud?
I created a database which consists of some tables - for now, there is now data in them, it's just a small script created by MySQL Workbench. I also created a database on Azure cloud, created login & password and when I want to use 'automated export' option (I have Storage account, I enter valid login with password) I have error:
'Could not find any bacpac files in the specified storage account.'
I tried google this phrase but I completely do not understand the idea behind these bacpac files and I do not know what to do with it. Can anyone describe me step-by-step how to put my database on Azure cloud?
I want to connect to this DB on Azure in the future because I would like to do a webapplication and android app which will use a remote DB available online.
Azure SQL Database is a custom SQL Server, so if you want to use MySQL you should create a Clear DB (which is a Microsoft partner that offers MySQL on azure). Other option, you can create a Virtual Machine and install by yourself a MySQL.
After that, you can import your tables / records.
I am trying to create a .bacpac file of my SQL 2012 database.
In SSMS 2012 I right click my database, go to Tasks, and select Export Data-tier Application. Then I click Next, and it gives me this error:

How can I export a .bacpac file of my database?
SQL Azure doesn't support windows authentication so I guess you'll need to make sure your database users are mapped to SQL Server Authentication logins instead.
I found this post referenced below which seems to answer my question. I wonder if the is a way to do this without having to delete my user from my local database...
"... there are some features in on premise SQL Server which are not
supported in SQL Azure. You will need to modify your database before
extracting. This article and several others list some of the
unsupported features.
This blog post explains how you can use SQL Server Data Tools to
modify your database to make it Azure compliant.
It sounds like you added clustered indices. Based on the message
above, it appears you still need to address TextInRowSize and
IsMappedToWindowsLogin."

Edit (2018-08-23): Since the existing answer is from 2014, I figured I'd serve it a fresh update... Microsoft now offers the DMA (Data Migration Assistant) to migrate SQL Server databases to Azure SQL.
You can learn more and download the free tool here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/sql-database/sql-database-migrate-your-sql-server-database
As of 9/2018, there is a new tool called the Data Migration Assistant that can help with the task of migrating an existing on-premise SQL Server Database to Azure. While the tool will NOT resolve the issue of migrating Windows Logins, it will at least help you get your database schema and data migrated up to Azure.
Here is the overview of the tool: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/dma/dma-overview?view=sql-server-2017
You can download the Data Migration Assistant here:
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=53595
Once you have migrated your database up to Azure, you can configure an AD Administrator on the SQL Server, then create contained users in your database to allow users to login to your SQL Database with their Windows accounts.
