# Export to a BACPAC file - Azure SQL Database and Azure SQL Managed Instance

> Machines processing import/export requests submitted through the Azure portal or PowerShell need to store the BACPAC file as well as temporary files generated by the Data-Tier Application Framework (DacFX). The disk space required varies significantly among databases with the same size and can require disk space up to 3 times the size of the database. Machines running the import/export request only have 450GB local disk space. As a result, some requests may fail with the error `There is not enough space on the disk`. In this case, the workaround is to run sqlpackage.exe on a machine with enough local disk space. We encourage using [SqlPackage](#sqlpackage-utility) to import/export databases larger than 150GB to avoid this issue.

2. Specify the BACPAC filename, select an existing Azure storage account and container for the export, and then provide the appropriate credentials for access to the source database. A SQL **Server admin login** is needed here even if you are the Azure admin, as being an Azure admin does not equate to having admin permissions in Azure SQL Database or Azure SQL Managed Instance.
