    Hi Yuji,

    Yes, It is possible to use DMF and Excel add-in.

    Hi Yuji, If you are refreshing database in non-recurring basis then SQL scripts would be good. You can use DMF as well but it won't be faster than SQL scripts. However, if you are refreshing in a recurring basis via Azure Pipelines then you can add steps in Pipeline itself

    Thanks Alireza,

    Is it possible to update those settings through DMF rather than SQL scripts?
