The sys.database_event_session_targets dynamic management view (DMV) returns a row for each event target for a database-scoped event session. For information about active database-scoped sessions, see sys.dm_xe_database_session_targets.
- Azure SQL Database and SQL database in Fabric support only database-scoped sessions.
