title: Bulk Insert csv file into Azure
body: <p>I want import a csv data file straight into a table i've created in Azure. I understand that Bulk Insert isn't supported in Azure.</p>
  
  <p>Please can anyone suggest a method for importing a flat file straight into Azure - I want to be able to do this straight from the command line (so that I can monitor the execution time using <strong>set statistics io on;</strong> ), and without syncing through SSIS or other applications. I've searched for guidance on this but all the articles I find appear to reference using BCP, but this appears to be an add-in?</p>
  
  <p>Grateful for any suggestions.</p>
  
  <p>R,
  Jon</p>
