I was able to download the Azure.Identity and its dependancies to a folder on my machine after looking at this article - Force download of specific nuget package to local packages folder using the following command: nuget.exe install "Azure.Identity" -source "https://api.nuget.org/v3/index.json" -OutputDirectory "C:\My\Folder" The intent is to use this for SSIS .net framework 4.8 so not sure if I needed to do anything different here. I then ran gacutil.exe /i C:\My\Folder\Azure.Identity.1.10.1\lib\netstandard2.0\Azure.Identity.dll and it installed successfully and i was able to see the dll in C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\assembly\GAC_MSIL and was able to add the reference to my ssis script task. I would like to do this with all of the dependancies as well.
Is there a faster way of doing this instead of loading one assembly into the GAC at a time? There are 17 individual folders will all of the dependent assemblies. If this works on my machine I will need to hand it over to the admins to install it on our servers and I am sure there is going to be some push back if they have to do each assembly individually for all of our servers.
Thanks in advance
