ProblemSQL Server Integration Services is Microsoft's powerful platform for implementingExtract, Transform and Load (ETL) solutions. It allows SQL Server Professionalsto solve complex business intelligence tasks and work with a wide range of datasources. Microsoft provides a graphical tool for designing and developing IntegrationServices projects. This tool has always been an integral part of the Visual Studio.However, the name of this tool as well as the method of its installation variesfrom version to version of Visual Studio (VS). In this article, we are going toillustrate how to install the SQL Server Integration Services development tool forthe latest version of Visual Studio.
SolutionAs mentioned above, Microsoft's tool for developing Integration Servicesprojects is named differently in different versions of the Visual Studio. For example,for the SQL Server 2008/2008R2 integration services, this tool was VS 2008'sBusiness Intelligence Development Studio (BIDS) and came with the SQL Server installationmedia. In VS 2010, the tool was renamed as the SQL Server Data Tools (SSDT) andshipped as a part of the SQL Server 2012 installation media. In VS 2012/2013, thistool was slightly renamed as SSDT-BI and needed a separate download. In VS 2015,it was called SSDT and needed a separate download. In VS 2017, this tool could beinstalled during the VS installation. It is worth mentioning that BIDS, SSDT-BI,and SSDT can be used not only for working with SSIS projects, but also SQL ServerAnalytical Services and SQL Server Reporting Services projects. Additionally, itis important to note that SSDT is backward compatible, which means that projectsdesigned on the newer versions of SSDT can run on older versions of SQL Server.
Now, after that historical review, let's move to the latest release ofVisual Studio – VS 2019 and see what this version provides as an SSIS developmenttool. For this version of the VS, there is no standalone installer for SSDT. Whilein this version the core components of SSDT for creating database projects haveremained integrated in Visual Studio, the Integration Services, Analysis Services,and Reporting Services projects have become just an extension of the VS. Thus, inorder to install the tool for SSIS development, we first need to install VS 2019.Therefore, we will divide our article into two parts. In the first part we willdescribe the installation of VS 2019 and in the second part, will illustrate theSSIS's extension installation.
Installing Visual Studio 2019
To download Visual Studio 2019 we will use thefollowinglink.
For our example, we will download the free, Community edition of this product:
Then, we will click on 'Free download'. After downloading the.exe file, we will double click on it to start the process:
The Visual Studio installer starts and after some time the following window isopened:
To add SSDT, we scroll down and choose 'Data storage and processing'.Then, we press the 'Install' button and wait for the installationto complete:
After installation, restart is required, so we press 'Restart':
After having our computer rebooted, we start Visual Studio:
On the next screen, just to keep our example simple, we just click 'Notnow, maybe later.' instead of signing in:
After that, we choose the theme and click on 'Start Visual Studio':
Well, we have installed Microsoft Visual Studio 2019 on our computer. Now, it'stime to add the extension for developing Integration Services projects.
Adding the SSIS Projects extension to the Visual Studio 2019
When Visual Studio is opened, we click on 'Continue without code'to add the necessary extension:
In this window, we click on 'Extensions' > 'Manage Extensions':
In the search bar of the opened window, we type 'Integration Services'to easily locate the extension. From the appeared list we choose 'SQL ServerIntegration Services Projects' and press 'Download':
Then, we will execute the downloaded .exe file:
The installation of the extension begins. Now, we will follow some simple steps.In the next window we click 'OK':
After that, we click 'Next' to continue:
If you receive the following message, you probably have SQL Server ManagementStudio opened:
Close it and click 'OK'. The process should continue:
Finally, the setup is completed and we have our extension installed:
Now, we are ready to create Integration Services projects. In Visual Studio,we choose 'Create a new project':
In the next window, we type 'integration' to find 'Integration ServicesProject' and click on it:
We choose a name for our project:
Hence, it is ready! We opened the interface where we can design and develop SSIS2019 packages:
Conclusion
To sum up, we reviewed the updates related to the tool for SQL Server IntegrationServices projects development in the VS 2019. As we have seen, in this version ofthe VS, the tool for designing SSIS projects is installed as an extension of theVisual Studio. We have also explored how to install Visual Studio 2019 and how toadd the Integration Services Projects extension to it.

Update Visual Studio 2017 version 15.6 or later
We've streamlined the installation and update experience to make it easier to use directly from within the IDE. Here's how to update from version 15.6 and later to newer versions of Visual Studio.
Using the Notifications hub
When there's an update, there's a corresponding notification flag in Visual Studio.
Save your work.
Choose the notification flag to open the Notifications hub, and then choose the update that you want to install.
Tip
Picture programs for computer. An update for an edition of Visual Studio 2017 is cumulative, so always choose to install the one with the most recent version number.
When the Update dialog box opens, choose Update Now.
If a User Access Control dialog box opens, choose Yes. Next, a 'Please wait' dialog might open for a moment, and then the Visual Studio Installer opens to start the update.
Your update continues. Then, when it's complete, Visual Studio restarts.
Note
When you run Visual Studio in administrator mode, you must manually restart Visual Studio after the update.
Using the IDE
You can check for an update and then install the update from the menu bar in Visual Studio.
Save your work.
Choose Help > Check for Updates.
When the Update dialog box opens, choose Update Now.
The update proceeds as described in the previous section, and then Visual Studio restarts after the update completes successfully.
Note
When you run Visual Studio in administrator mode, you must manually restart Visual Studio after the update.
Using the Visual Studio Installer
As in earlier versions of Visual Studio, you can use the Visual Studio Installer to install an update.
Save your work.
Open the installer. The Visual Studio Installer might require updating before you continue.
Note
On a computer running Windows 10, you can find the installer under the letter V as the Visual Studio Installer, or under the letter M as the Microsoft Visual Studio Installer.
On the Product page in the installer, look for the edition of Visual Studio that you installed previously.
If an update is available, you see an Update Update powerpoint 2016 to 2019. button. (It might take a few seconds for the installer to determine whether an update is available.)
Choose the Update button to install the updates.
Update Visual Studio 2017 version 15.5 or earlier
If you're using an earlier version, here's how to apply an update from Visual Studio 2017 version 15.0 through version 15.5.
Update by using the Notifications hub
When there are updates, there's a corresponding notification flag in Visual Studio.
Choose the notification flag to open the Notifications hub.

More about Visual Studio notifications
Visual Studio notifies you when an update is available for Visual Studio itself or for any components, and also when certain events occur in the Visual Studio environment.
- When the notification flag is yellow, there's a Visual Studio product update available for you to install.

- When the notification flag is black, there are optional or informational messages to review.
Choose the notifications flag to open the Notifications hub and then choose the notifications that you want to act on. Or, choose to ignore or dismiss a notification.
If you choose to ignore a notification, Visual Studio stops showing it. If you want to reset the list of ignored notifications, choose the Settings button in the Notifications hub.
Update by using the Visual Studio Installer
Open the installer. You might need to update the installer before continuing. If this is the case, you're prompted to do so.
Note
On a computer running Windows 10, you can find the installer under the letter V as the Visual Studio Installer, or under the letter M as the Microsoft Visual Studio Installer.
On the Product page in the installer, look for the edition of Visual Studio that installed previously.
