Azure SQL Dynamic Account
In this article
Overview
You can use this account type to connect Azure SQL Snaps with data sources that use Azure SQL Dynamic account.
Dynamic Account types support Secrets Management, a SnapLogic add-on that allows you to store endpoint credentials in a third-party secrets manager. Orgs using Secrets Management provide the information necessary to retrieve the secrets in expression-enabled dynamic Account fields. During validation and execution, Pipelines obtain the credentials directly from the secrets manager. Learn more about Secrets Management.
You can Validate an account connection when creating a Azure SQL/Active Directory Account but not when creating a Azure SQL/Active Directory Dynamic Account because the account properties of a dynamic account are provided dynamically as Pipeline parameters. You can specify the Account properties as expressions referencing Pipeline parameters.
Prerequisites
Valid Database and JDBC driver.
Valid Azure Storage credentials.
Limitations and Known Issues
None.
