Answer 1

Like mentioned by AdaTheDev, SqlBulkCopy can only insert however there is an alternative library which allow to perform Upsert operations.

Disclaimer: I'm the owner of the project Bulk Operations

The Bulk Operations library has a method "BulkMerge" which Insert or Update rows based on the specified key.

var bulk = new BulkOperation(connection);

bulk.ColumnMappings.Add("ID", true);
bulk.ColumnMappings.Add("Column1");
bulk.ColumnMappings.Add("Column2");
bulk.ColumnMappings.Add("Column3");

bulk.BulkMerge(dt);
