External references are not supported when creating a package from this platform.BACPAC Error & Fix

In this video, we explore why cross-database references and external references are not supported in Azure SQL Database and how this leads to DACPAC and BACPAC export errors. You will learn how Azure SQL’s single-database architecture works and why using three-part naming (Database.Schema.Table) causes unresolved reference errors. We’ll reproduce the issue, understand the root cause, and walk through the correct fix using two-part naming. This session is perfect for DBAs, developers, and anyone migrating from on-prem SQL Server to Azure SQL who wants to avoid deployment and export failures. Topics covered: What is a cross-database reference Why Azure SQL blocks external references Understanding the “Unresolved Reference” error Demo of the issue Fix using schema-qualified names Best practices for Azure SQL development
