Obtain the connection string from the Azure portal

Use the Azure portal to obtain the connection string necessary for your client program to interact with Azure SQL Database:

  1. Click BROWSE > SQL databases.

  2. Enter the name of your database into the filter text box near the upper-left of the SQL databases blade.

  3. Click the row for your database.

  4. After the blade appears for your database, for visual convenience you can click the standard minimize controls to collapse the blades you used for browsing and database filtering.

    Filter to isolate your database

  5. On the blade for your database, click Show database connection strings.

  6. If you intend to use the ADO.NET connection library, copy the string labeled ADO.

    Copy the ADO connection string for your database

  7. In one format or another, paste the connection string information into your client program code.
