and I still don't see the tool box.

Hi @William Hull ,

You currently have VS2022 installed.
Unfortunately, SSIS development tooling is not yet ready for it.
Microsoft is still working on it.

You would need to use the following:

VS2019 latest build.

SQL Server Integration Services Projects extension for VS2019. Version 3.16

SQL Server Integration Services Projects Download

I did all of this, and I still don't have the option to start a SSIS package.

@William Hull ,

SQL Server Integration Services Projects extension has a wrong version.

Version 3.16 is the latest general availability (GA) version.

I asked you to install v.3.16 though you installed v.4.2
Please uninstall v.4.2, and download and install v.3.16

I followed your instructions and I searched for v3.16 and I keep getting this version:

Visual Studio 2019 version 16.11.19

Hi @William Hull ，

As you comment that you have downloaded Visual Studio 2019 and SSIS project.

Just create a new SSIS project, you may see the SSIS tool box on the left.

If the SSIS tool box still miss, to get the SSIS toolbox back, right-click on the SSIS design surface in the project and select SSIS Toolbox.

Regards，

Zoe Hui

The SSIS Toolbox is a feature of Visual Studio SSDT, not SSMS.

Well that makes sense to why I can't find it in SSMS, but I followed the documentation rabbit hole to get to this:

https://zcusa.951200.xyz/en-us/sql/ssdt/download-sql-server-data-tools-ssdt?redirectedfrom=MSDN&view=sql-server-ver16

Followed the steps to add SSDT to visual studio, but still can't seem to pull up SSIS toolbox.

Please add a screen shot of your Visual Studio 2017 and a spot where you are expecting to see the SSIS toolbox to your original question.

Tom Phillips 17,741 Reputation points

That is your SSMS version.

You need to install SSDT, either the addin to Visual Studio, or the SSDT as a stand alone.

Oh, you are running VS 2022. There is not any SSIS support in SSDT for VS 2022. You must use VS 2019.

https://zcusa.951200.xyz/en-us/sql/ssdt/download-sql-server-data-tools-ssdt?view=sql-server-ver16

The extension for Integration Services projects is not available for Visual Studio 2022 at this time.

It's May 7 2023. I'm using VS 2022 and after you have installed SQL Server Integration Services Project 2022 extension, you can create SSIS package. If SSIS Toolbox missed, do what Zoe Hui suggested and you will find it:

And this is not true any more "Oh, you are running VS 2022. There is not any SSIS support in SSDT for VS 2022. You must use VS 2019.". Happy to use VS 2022! Cheers.
