How to download sql server driver using azure dev ops/ pipelines

I am connecting to SQL server using the library pyodbc. I downloaded the driver locally using the following https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/connect/odbc/download-odbc-driver-for-sql-server?view=sql-server-ver16. All my code now works and I want to run it on azure. Is there an azure pipeline task to download the same driver am using locally? do I include it in a script?

    Are you planning to run on a hosted agent? If so it should already have the sql server ODBC driver installed. You can confirm this by configuring a new pipeline on a hosted agent and running the following in a powershell task

    Get-OdbcDriver

    If you use Microsoft-hosted agents to run the pipeline, normally you do not need an extra step to install the ODBC Driver:

    • On windows-2022 (windows-latest) agent, it has the component "Microsoft.VisualStudio.Component.MSODBC.SQL v17.2.32408.312" installed.
    • On windows-2019 agent, it has the component "Microsoft.VisualStudio.Component.MSODBC.SQL v16.0.28625.61" installed.

    If you use self-hosted agent which installed on your local machine or VM, you can login to the machine, then manually download and install the required ODBC Driver version.
