Here's an excerpt:
Next, complete the Package Configuration Wizard and specify the view as the configuration source:
- In SSDT, under package properties, click Configurations.
- In the Package Configurations Organizer, check Enable package configurations, and click Add.
- Under Configuration type, select SQL Server.
- Under Connection, click New to create a new Connection manager if a connection manager of type "Native OLE DB\SQL Server Native Client 11.0" doesn't already exist. Select the database that hosts the configuration table and view.
- Under Configuration table, select the view (not the table) created above.
- Under Configuration filter, choose any name that will uniquely distinguish this package from other packages. Avoid any server-specific references.
- Click Next and complete the wizard.
