SQL Dependency Tracker and SQL Server instance on an Azure managed instance

JBTaylor

I recently migrated to a SQL Server instance on an Azure managed instance.

I am not able to connect to the database using SQL Dependency tracker.

Is there a way to use the tool on a managed instance?

Hi @JBTaylor

It's not specifically supported in https://documentation.red-gate.com/sdt/requirements, but it may work based on Azure SQL Databases being supported:

• Azure SQL Database & Virtual Machines

I think it's more likely related to the auth type trying to be used. Can you attach a screenshot of the error so that we can see what's happening with it?

I need Azure Active Directory- Password to log on to my database

Hi @JBTaylor,

I've just double checked the documentation for Dependency Tracker and unfortunately it does state that:

"Azure Active Directory Authentication is not supported."
