Hi, I have SQL 2016 and VS2022, recently upgraded visual studio to VS2022 and trying to edit the package compatible with version 2016. But, I can't find the targetserverversion as SQL 2016, only I can see SQL 2017, 2019, 2022. Please suggest the solution. User's image

    Hi @Sarojkumar,

    VS2022 till now only support target SQL Server2017-2022.

    In addition, SSIS2022 do not have a GA version now.

    I'd like to suggest that you may wait for the GA version or use VS2019 temporarily.

    Regards,

    Zoe Hui

    Respectfully, Zoe's answer is INCORRECT.

    With your SSIS Package open in Visual Studio 2022:

    1. Open the Solutions Explorer window
    2. Right-click the Project (likely, the top-most entry in the explorer list)
    3. Select "Properties"
    4. Select "Configuration Properties"
    5. Select "General"
    6. Select "Deployment Target Version"
    7. Select "SQL Server 2016"

    Now, when you deploy the SSIS Package, the system will ensure that all embedded syntax and related are in compliance with the selected OS level.
