SSIS Expressions

Expressions in SSIS are great. They allow you to create dynamic values for all sorts of stuff like variables, connection strings, properties for almost anything, etc. One huge issue that tends to trip up a lot of folks, especially those new to SSIS, is the evaluation of those expressions when using variables.

The Issue

You create an SSIS variable with an expression but at runtime the expression is not evaluating as expected. Instead the expression value is using the default/static value of the variable.

Quick Answer

Make sure property for 鈥楨valuate as an Expression鈥� on the variable is set to True. Without it being set to true, the variable will evaluate to the hard set value.
