  2. Import as a data tier application
  3. If data tier application failed then import using below commands
  4. cd C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SQL Server\140\DAC\bin
    SqlPackage.exe /a:import /sf:D:\Exportedbacpac\uatBackup.bacpac /tsn:localhost /tdn:SSProd /p:CommandTimeout=1200

     

    • tsn (target server name) – The name of the SQL Server to import into.
    • tdn (target database name) – The name of the database to import into. The database should not already exist.
