This code works well: to connect Azure database and grab data from table

function onOpen() {

var spreadsheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActive();

var menuItems = [
    {name: 'Get Data', functionName: 'readData'}
];
	spreadsheet.addMenu('Report', menuItems);
}


// Replace the variables in this block with your values.
 var hostName = 'SERVER.database.windows.net:1433;'
 var db = 'DBNAME;';
 var user = 'USER@SERVER';
 var userPwd = 'PASSWORD';



 var dbUrl = 'jdbc:sqlserver://'+hostName + 'databaseName='+db; 


function readData() {
 var conn = Jdbc.getConnection(dbUrl, user, userPwd);
 var stmt = conn.createStatement();

  
 // Place your query below
 var results = stmt.executeQuery('SELECT TOP (10) * FROM [dbo].[NAME]');
 var metaData=results.getMetaData();
 var numCols = metaData.getColumnCount();
 var sheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSheet();

 sheet.clearContents();

 var arr=[];

 for (var col = 0; col < numCols; col++) {
  arr.push(metaData.getColumnName(col + 1));
 }

 sheet.appendRow(arr);


 while (results.next()) {
  arr=[];

  for (var col = 0; col < numCols; col++) {

   arr.push(results.getString(col + 1));
  }
 sheet.appendRow(arr);

}

results.close();
stmt.close();

sheet.autoResizeColumns(1, numCols+1);

}
