Managing Packages and Folders Programmatically

As you work programmatically with Integration Services packages, you may want to determine whether an individual package or folder exists, or to manage the folders in which packages are stored. The Application class of the Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime namespace provides a variety of methods to satisfy these requirements.

In This Topic

  • Determining whether a package or folder exists

  • Managing packages and folders

    • Removing a package

    • Creating a folder

    • Removing a folder

    • Renaming a folder

For information about enumerating available packages, see Enumerating Available Packages Programmatically. For information about loading and running saved packages programmatically, see Running an SSIS Package Programmatically on the Local Computer and Running an SSIS Package Programmatically on a Remote Computer.

All the methods discussed in this topic require a reference to the Microsoft.SqlServer.ManagedDTS assembly. After you add the reference in a new project, import the Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime namespace with a using or Imports statement.

Important

The methods of the Application class for working with the SSIS Package Store support only ".", localhost, or the server name for the local server. You cannot use "(local)".
