Eventlog e-mail should indicate which server's Eventlog has the error.
I am happy to see the new Eventlog error included in the email with 8.5. It uncovered an issue for us though, since we are using 4 servers in a BizTalk group. My original alert does not indicate which of the 4 servers are throwing the error. My clunky workaround was to have 4 alerts - one for each server, but I would prefer to have the server name in the EventLog content in the e-mail.
Before I made the change, I would get one alert with 1-4 event log items and I had to search until I found the…

Occasionally we have an issue while saving a tracked message.

Improve filter options in Data monitoring screen under "SET DATA FILTER"
The filter options under Data Monitoring alert are very limited.
Example: For query type 'Suspended Service Instances', the 'Add Filter' only has one condition 'Is Equal to'.
Which means, we cannot create filters like 'Is Not Equal to'.
This is specially important when we don't want to monitor suspended messages of specific port/application/service/host for example.23 votesThis feature has come as part of the version 8.9.5 release. Sing up to our newsletter to be notified of upcoming releases

Holiday exclusions for process monitoring
Process Monitoring is a powerful feature, but often times when we’re monitoring receive or send ports, we need to exclude holidays. For example, if monitoring a send port to ensure at least one message is sent through it every MON-FRI (i.e. Business Day), we want to be able to exclude company holidays, such as Veteran’s Day, Thanksgiving, etc. It would be great if there were a list we could maintain for holidays within BizTalk360, and then when setting up Process Monitoring we could check a box to exclude company holidays. That would make the Process Monitoring feature even more valuable.…

Auditing on message content view
We using BizTalk360 to manage the integrations for while now. We use the BizTalk360 application mainly for our Integration Management Groups. In each group there are one or more persons responsible for the integration flow.
Then there’s me, responsible for that the BizTalk plattform itself is running.
BizTalk360 are allowed to see message content on suspended instance, because they need to take action depending on content. This can be sensitive data. We already see that a person terminates or resumes a instance. What we lack is auditing when users are looking at the message content. By regulation we need to…

View MDN message in AS2 log
NRR enabled for outbound MDN" and "NRR enabled for inbound MDN" options enabled in AS2 agreement configuration in parties profile. We can view the associated MDN message by right-click on a AS2/MDN Status record in BizTalk Admin Console. However they cannot view MDN message in BizTalk360

monitoring of service instances that are in this state for longer than set period of time
Would like to know how to monitor running services instances for duration > x minutes. I can see how to monitor by count, but not by duration.
We occasionally see the case where many different service instances are in a running state for an extended period of time (not by design). The issue generally turns out being at the platform level (ie. resource contention on the servers causing multiple hosts to throttle or just hang).
We will work on tuning the hosts, and addressing these types of issues. In the meantime, however, we would like to have awareness when any…

Zooming feature in Graphical Flow (Tracking)
I have been using graphical view tracking of BizTalk360. But encountered that it's unreadable when orchestration (or may be anything) has many message transactions. Refer the attachment. We have many BizTalk integration which has more than 10 calls happening at the orchestration and graphical view tracking is not very useful in our cases.
Good to have zoom-in features when there are many messages.

Wildcard to event log sources for Avanced Event Viewer
Currently, you can only enter specific event sources. With a naming convention of custom event sources, it would be a lot easier to enter and maintain the Custom Event Viewer if we could use wildcards.
