Description
I simply would like to have the Contoso sample data in an Azure SQL database. There's a possibility to load AdventureWorks sample data when creating an Azure SQL database, but not the Contoso sample data. I'm far from an DBA, and need simple instructions. I can see there are instructions to load the Contoso database into Azure Synaps as well as using Polybase, but this is far more complicated than just choosing the AdventureWord as sample data when you create a database.
And I guess the same process could also be used to load the two versions of WorldWildImporters as well

Research direction
Start by reviewing the existing AdventureWorks sample-database creation flow and the current Contoso instructions for Azure Synapse and PolyBase. Define a simpler Azure SQL Database loading path, including whether it can also support the two World Wide Importers versions, and document the steps so a non-DBA can complete them.
