This extension provides immediate access to the current First Responder Kit scripts and introductory execution suggestions. (All credit due to http://firstresponderkit.org/)
The current release is available to download as a .vsix file and can be installed by opening the command palette (ctrl/command+shift+p) and selecting Extensions: Install from VSIX...
Import a script from the First Responder Kit to a new editor by opening the command palette (ctrl/command+shift+p) and selecting an option under First Responder Kit: Import <some script>. To import all scripts at once, select First Responder Kit: Import sp_Blitz and all its friends.
Already have the current scripts loaded to the database? Great! Take the shortcut to execution by opening the command palette (ctrl/command+shift+p) and selecting an option under First Responder Kit: Run <some script>. Several scripts are available in Object Explorer at Server, Database, and Table nodes.
Want to check the sp_Blitz version on a server? You can check your current connection or a server in object explorer and find out if you have the current version.
Selected elements from the First Responder Kit PowerBI dashboard have been replicated in a dashboard tab. The elements execute against the current database and require the database configured to contain First Responder Kit historical data. For more information on data collection configuration, please see: https://www.brentozar.com/first-aid/first-responder-kit-power-bi-dashboard/
Internet connectivity is required for any of the "Import" commands, which connect to GitHub to fetch recent versions of the scripts. A GitHub account is NOT required.
First Responder Kit scripts require SQL Server 2008 or newer. See current requirements for the scripts at http://firstresponderkit.org/.
No open issues at this time.
