Export Data from SQL Server to Email through SSIS

SQL Server databases are commonly used to store enterprise records. It is often necessary to move this data to other locations. The CData SSIS Task for Email allows you to easily transfer Email data. In this article you will export data from SQL Server to Email.

Add Source and Destination Components

To get started, add a new ADO.NET Source control and a new Email Destination control to the data flow task.

Configure the ADO.NET Source

Follow the steps below to specify properties required to connect to the SQL Server instance.

1. Open the ADO.NET Source and add a new connection. Enter your server and database information here.
2. In the Data access mode menu, select "Table or view" and select the table or view to export into Email.
3. Close the ADO NET Source wizard and connect it to the destination component.

Create a New Connection Manager for Email

Follow the steps below to set required connection properties in the Connection Manager.

1. Create a new connection manager: In the Connection Manager window, right-click and then click New Connection. The Add SSIS Connection Manager dialog is displayed.
2. Select CData Email Connection Manager in the menu.
3. Configure the connection properties.

   The User and Password properties, under the Authentication section, must be set to valid credentials. The Server must be specified to retrieve emails and the SMTPServer must be specified to send emails.

Configure the Email Destination

In the destination component Connection Manager, define mappings from the SQL Server source table into the Email destination table and the action you want to perform on the Email data. In this article, you will insert Mailboxes entities to Email.

1. Double-click the Email destination to open the destination component editor.
2. In the Connection Managers tab, select the connection manager previously created.
3. In the Use a Table, menu, select Mailboxes. In the Action menu, select Insert.
4. On the Column Mappings tab, configure the mappings from the input columns to the destination columns.

Run the Project

You can now run the project. After the SSIS Task has finished executing, data from your SQL table will be exported to the chosen table.
