I'm currently working through an example on cross database queries on SQL Azure. http://www.c-sharpcorner.com/article/cross-database-queries-in-azure-sql/
I'm currently working on the following section -
CREATE EXTERNAL DATA SOURCE RefmyDemoDB2
WITH
(
TYPE=RDBMS,
LOCATION='your server name',
DATABASE_NAME='myDemoDB2',
CREDENTIAL= your “Server admin login”
);
I'm getting the following error The specified credential cannot be found or the user does not have permission to perform this action.
I have the correct LOCATION and DATABASE_NAME however the CREDENTIAL seems wrong. I am using the Server-Admin account that is displayed in the overview of the database server on Azure, I also use this role to log into management studio and can query both databases ok.
Can anyone please advise?
