Hi,
I have created the VSIX project by which I am able to generate the extension for SQL Server Management Studio. And I can see my command option for Tools Menu.
But now I want to add my custom context Menu(right click) option inside SQL server Management Studio with the help of VSIX project.
How can we achieve that.
I am using VS2022 and trying for SSMS20

Hi @Deepak Rane (drane) ,
About creating custom context menu, you can check following documentation: Extend menus and commands.
About installing/integrating it to SSMS, I’m not very sure. I remember that I reported this ticket: VSIX project doesn’t load well in SSMS. Mike Wade mentioned "XCopy-style deployment of extensions is not a supported scenario in this version of SSMS". In VS 2017&SSMS 18 it worked, but not sure if it works for VS 2022 and SSMS 20.
BTW, you might need to get and use the ID/Guid when you are developing your extension. This Command Explorer extension may be useful.
