Answer 1

I had same issue, I got Index Adviser active. I had SQL server 2014 Management studio. I upgrade to SP1, and try to install some hotfix, but nothing work. I was about to install 2016 edition, but then as last try instead of downloading Bacpac from Azure Portal, I use Management studio 2014 sp1 to connect to my DB and Export the Bacpac, and then try to import that Version it goes through fine.

I don't have to run those queries to turn off adviser, or any alteration. So just want to suggest if you have SQL server 2014 Edition upgrade it to SP1 and then export DB using it, this ensure that you create Bacpac that is compatible with that Management studio version as management studio is one that is writing the bacpac. Hope that help someone, who don't want to alter db.

on my machine, download bacpac from Azure's portal still don't work.
