How do I setup an AutoResolve Integrated Runtime in Azure Purview

I am trying to test out Azure Purview and connect it to an Azure SQL Server. Since the SQL server is hosted in the cloud I want to use the default AutoResolve Integrated Runtime to get connected but there is not one setup or an option to setup a new one. Has anyone else using Purview been able to setup (or needed to setup) an AutoResolve IR?

Solution

To connect to Azure SQL DB/MI you can directly go to the Azure Purview portal and register new data sources and select Azure SQL DB/MI.

In this article - Manage data sources in Azure Purview (Preview), you learn how to register new data sources, manage collections of data sources, and view sources in Azure Purview (Preview).

Only to connect on-premise SQL server you need to Set up a self-hosted integration runtime to scan the data source.
If the data source is located on Azure, you don't need any integration runtime to scan the data source.

Reference: Register and scan an Azure SQL Database.
