How to extract MSSQLServer database as .dacpac without VerifyExtraction?

Question

I want to extract a database schema of a MSSQLServer database with Server Management Studio. I use the Extract command \"Extract Data-tier Application..\"

In the databas

Answer 1

I wasn't able to find a method that works in SSMS (2008 R2 or 2012), either, but Visual Studio (2013) with SSDT seems to work: Within VS, go to SQL Server Object Explorer, connect to the server in question, right click the database in question, Extract Data-tier Application, and then adjust the Extract Settings, one of which is "Verify extraction". I don't know why MS doesn't just build that into SSMS.

One somewhat-odd thing I noticed from doing, this, though, is that VS will only extract a .DacPac via this method. Even when you choose to add data to the extract, the extension is still .DacPac. I was under the impression that .DacPacs were solely for Schema Only, while .BacPacs were for Schema + Data. Regardless, after VS created the .DacPac (Schema + Data) file, SSMS was able to import it fine using "Deploy Data-tier Application..." wizard.
