New-DbaDacProfile View Source Richie lee (@richiebzzzt) Windows, Linux, macOS Synopsis Creates DAC publish profile XML files for automated dacpac deployment to SQL Server databases. Description The New-DbaDacProfile command generates standard publish profile XML files that control how DacFx deploys your dacpac files to SQL Server databases. These profile files define deployment settings like target database, connection details, and deployment options. The generated XML template includes basic deployment settings sufficient for most dacpac deployments, but you’ll typically want to add additional deployment options to the publish profile for production scenarios.

Publish-DbaDacPackage View Source Richie lee (@richiebzzzt) Windows, Linux, macOS Synopsis Deploys DACPAC or BACPAC files to SQL Server databases using the DacFx framework Description Deploys database schema changes from DACPAC files created by SSDT projects or Export-DbaDacPackage, automatically updating target database structure and executing embedded pre/post deployment scripts. Also imports data from BACPAC files for complete database restoration scenarios. This replaces manual schema synchronization and deployment processes, making it essential for CI/CD pipelines and environment promotions.
