I am using the MS Hosted runner image as base then adding some additional toolsets that we need. The SSIS projects is not an available workload for the packer build to include natively, I have to install it after. The issue I have is I don't want to be dependent on a single version, but would prefer to download the latest:
https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/_apis/public/gallery/publishers/SSIS/vsextensions/MicrosoftDataToolsIntegrationServices/1.3.2/vspackage
The current version seems to be 1.3.2. For the other toolsets I have added extra, I am able to find them in some package manager, repository or GitHub to grab. I cannot seem to find a way with this one. I was thinking of using vswhere.exe to get the version of VS that the system has and use that as a basis of what version to get of the SSIS projects extension.
Updated:
I reviewed their older releases:
https://ssis.gallerycdn.vsassets.io/extensions/ssis/microsoftdatatoolsintegrationservices/1.0.1/1687243002634/Microsoft.DataTools.IntegrationServices.exe
I see that, that is a blob. I cannot move up to a more higher-level:
https://ssis.gallerycdn.vsassets.io/extensions/ssis/microsoftdatatoolsintegrationservices
I get a:
<Error> <Code>BlobNotFound</Code>
<Message>The specified blob does not exist. RequestId:78e28227-c01e-004d-159f-2306f5000000 Time:2023-11-30T15:11:47.2421681Z</Message> </Error>
which makes sense since it is a container path, not the blob itself, but even in storage explorer, connecting to:
https://ssis.gallerycdn.vsassets.io/extensions
Results in a cert error, then when I switched to use the system proxy, it gets an auth error, but being that this is a public blob, I assume it is using anonymous auth at the container level.

Initial Answer - 16 Feb. 2022
Microsoft SQL Server business intelligence extensions are still unavailable for Visual Studio 2022.
Many people are still confused about the difference between SQL Server Data Tools used to create SQL databases projects and the business intelligence suite:
- SSDT, SSDT-BI confusion in backwards compatibility for different SQL version
Using Visual Studio 2022, only the SQL Server Data Tools required to create database projects are currently available. As mentioned in the official documentation:
The core SSDT functionality to create database projects has remained integral to Visual Studio. The extensions for Analysis Services, Integration Services, and Reporting Services projects are currently unavailable for Visual Studio 2022.
You can note that in the Visual Studio marketplace, only Visual Studio 2019 is mentioned:
As Microsoft support commented on 2022-02-08:
Supporting VS2022 is on our radar, but there's no exact ETA now.
Hello Nagesh CL,
Welcome to the Microsoft Q&A and thank you for posting your questions here.
I understand that you could not find BI projects, and you are unable to create SSIS projects.
Solution
If you are using Visual Studio 2017 with SQL Server Data Tools (SSDT) installed and cannot find Business Intelligence (BI) projects or create SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) projects, putting together below are some steps you can follow to resolve the issue:
- Even if SSDT is installed, you might still need to install the specific SSIS extension.
- Ensure that SSDT is installed correctly. You can do this by going to
Tools>Extensions and Updates>Installedand checking if SSDT is listed there. - Open Visual Studio 2017.
- Go to Tools > Extensions and Updates.
- Click on Online on the left pane.
- Search for "SQL Server Integration Services Projects".
- Click Download and install the extension.
- Restart Visual Studio after the installation is complete.
- Make sure Visual Studio and all its components are up to date. Go to
Tools>Extensions and Updates>Updatesto see if there are any updates available for SSDT or other related tools. - If the above steps do not resolve the issue, you may need to repair your Visual Studio installation. This can fix any corrupted or missing components. To do this:
- Open
Control Panel. - Go to
Programs and Features. - Find
Microsoft Visual Studio 2017in the list. - Click
Change. - Select
Repairand follow the on-screen instructions.
- Open
- Lasty, if you suspect that SSDT was not installed correctly, you can manually install it:
- Download the latest SSDT installer from the Microsoft website.
- Run the installer and follow the instructions to install SSDT with the SSIS, SSRS, and SSAS components.
After the above you should be able to resolve the issue and create SSIS projects in Visual Studio 2017 with SSDT installed.

Hi @Nagesh CL
To install Analysis Services, Integration Services, and Reporting Services project support, run the SSDT standalone installer.
The installer lists available Visual Studio instances to add SSDT tools. If Visual Studio isn't already installed, selecting Install a new SQL Server Data Tools instance installs SSDT with a minimal version of Visual Studio, but for the best experience, we recommend using SSDT with the latest version of Visual Studio.
