Copy data from on-premise database to Fabric SQL database

[Hemant_Patel]

In Fabric data pipeline, I am trying to copy data from on-premise database to Fabric SQL database.

I am using service principal to authenticate with Fabric SQL database. I validated the authentication of the service principal with Fabric SQL database using SSMS and it works.

I am getting below error :

ErrorCode=UserErrorInvalidPluginType,'Type=Microsoft.DataTransfer.Common.Shared.PluginNotRegisteredException,Message=Invalid type 'FabricSqlDatabase' is provided in 'linkedServices'. Please correct the type in payload and retry.,Source=Microsoft.DataTransfer.ClientLibrary,'

Any idea how to resolve this .

It sounds like an issue with the linked service configuration. Have you checked if 'FabricSqlDatabase' is a supported type in your data pipeline setup? Also, ensure that all required permissions are granted to the service principal. Sometimes, revalidating the connection and updating the linked service type can resolve the issue. Hope this helps!

Hello @Hemant_Patel 

For copying data to a Fabric SQL database, you may need to use `AzureSQLDatabase` linked service type.

please give it a try.

Hi @Hemant_Patel ,

Thanks for reaching out to the Microsoft Fabric Community forum.
The error message you're encountering indicates that there is a problem with connecting to your SQL Database. Here are some steps you can take to troubleshoot and resolve the issue:

• Ensure that the connection string used in your application or Data Factory is correct. Verify the server name, database name, username, and password.
• Make sure that the SQL Database firewall settings allow access from the IP address of the Data Factory runtime. You can check this in the Azure portal under the SQL Database settings.
• Ensure that the SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections. You can check this in the SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) under server properties.
• If the connection is timing out, consider increasing the timeout settings in your connection string.Implement retry logic in your application to handle transient errors, as sometimes the issue may be temporary.

Additonally you can refer this doc related to Troubleshoot connectivity issues in SQL Server :
