Once I start playing more, I’ll figure what else to add – whether customize myself or add an extension. You can do a search to narrow down the results if you are feeling overwhelmed: Searching for F5 NOTE – there is an extension for porting over the popular SSMS shortcuts over. Now that I have some extensions set up, I took a look at the Keyboard Shortcuts. When I clicked on Install, it brought me to the GitHub page where I followed the directions to install: Not all extensions automatically install. But I know I will keep an eye out for when they’re ready. For some reason, I’m a little nervous for some of the ones that are still in preview. I’ll definitely be adding more in the future. Where do I want to start? I decided to start by adding these: Microsoft has green stars in the corner of the Extensions they recommend. David Bland has several posts about his set up as well. Some searching led me to this post by Buck Woody, which has a list of what he uses the most. I did a quick Google search to see which extensions people recommend. I knew there were a lot of Extensions, but seeing the list is quite different. If you want the full list, see Microsoft’s Github wiki page. There are multiple places you can find the Extensions – an icon on the side or from the Settings icon or the view Menu. There is section for customize on the welcome screen: Now it’s time to start setting this up for my personal use. When it finished the update, Azure Data Studio opened right up again. I also found that under the Window Menu option. When I clicked on the Icon, I saw the option: Restart to Update. As I had just been updating everything else on my personal laptop, I figured it was a good time to do this. But this is what I saw:Īs I said, it had been a while. I still have it set up to have it show the welcome page when it starts. It had been a while since I had installed ADS or updated it or probably even opened it to be honest. I can already see how useful that is so I want to play with that ability more as well. Plus I like the idea that I can use one tool for SQL and for PowerShell. After seeing others use Azure Data Studio for demos, I like the way it can add comments around the various code sections in notebooks so I decided that I want to use it for my sessions as well. But it’s hard to just jump to a new tool without having a goal. I attended Vicky Harp’s ( t) session about SQL Server tools at PASS Summit and I really appreciated what I was seeing. I’ve been wanting to work more with Azure Data Studio for a while.
