When integrating BizTalk360 with another system using the custom notification channel feature, it's still mandatory to input email id in the Basic Details section. We would like to suggest making the email id optional if you're using notification channels. When integrating with a ticketing system for example, you will often be using the ticketing system's own email notification system and would not need for BizTalk360 to send emails as well. Or you might not want to use emails at all and rely on other notifications.

Ability to create email distributions lists that are saved and can be reused for future alerts. This will prevent from having to type an Email over and over again. Allows for reuse.

When defining alarms it should be possible to separate alarms by "user group". Essentially we will be sharing access to BT360 with our client and we would like them to be able to create their own alarms for their applications. However we don't want them to be able to edit (or delete) our alarms. It should be possible to separate alarms by user group.

Allow the custom notification channel assembly to load from the GAC, possibly with a checkbox and this could be another option to loading from the database. Updating an existing custom channel does not work properly and this could help to solve the issue. It would be MUCH easier to install (or re-install) a custom DLL to the GAC and restart the service as needed.

The settings exports such as Alarms allow only JSON as an export format. Although the format is convenient for web sites and browser applications, it is not as convenient to read and query in text editors. PowerShell querying (Convert-FromJson) seems to be useful to read the exported JSON data, but I request that you add XML support for import/export of settings. Being able to query the settings is important when any bulk changes to alarms are required or when migrating alarms between environments.

I think it would be valuable, from an administrative point of view, to have some sort of to-do/calendar/schedule for maintenance tasks - perhaps with reminders?

As an admin sometimes i lose track of which environment needs which CU, which needs OS patches, which needs sql maintenance, etc.

Would be awesome if somewhere i could set up reminders on a calendar and get email alerts or notifications that there is maintenance coming up so i could schedule.

WebEndpoint Monitoring features are enhanced in the new version, but the old good feature was discontinued.

Old Feature : Web Endpoint Configuration used to show the actual code and expected return code, so that user will know what is the expected and what is the actual. This was useful in the support issues where user had flexibility to stop the alert by making the expected code equal to the actual code.

New feature doesnt have that flexibility. This results in removal of endpoint (As we cant disable it) everytime the error occurs.

Hi,
In the Analytics graphs, where I have the "count" of messages in a particular time frame, it could be interested to have the ability to understand what are the types of messages that were processed during this time frame.
Because sometimes it is very interested to identify which particular flow is the most used during a peak.

Currently, you can search on Artifacts in BizTalk 360, including maps and schema's. When you search for schema's for instance, you can see the schema itself by selecting schema viewer.
In case of a map, it would be useful to see a graphical representation of the map, like BizTalk Documenter.

Hi,
In order to avoid a deletion by mistake, it could be great to add a confirmation request before deleting a Logic App :)

As part of the prerequisite checks of the MSI Installation, show an error if the license is active, so you can deactivate it before installation

It would be excellent to be able to save a customised user access profile as a new template so to make it easier to grant multiple users similar security profiles. i realise you can do this by applying a profile to a group account, but that doesn't allow you to make minor changes to each individual user within the group.

Our analyst and support team want to view the actual AS2 message contents sent and the MDN message contents received from Trading Partners.

In the BAM alarm notification condition you can only choose greater than > or equal =. we also need to have less than <.

Making extended use of the captured Messaging Performance analytics data, it would be good to be able to set a performance SLA for messaging through BizTalk. If the latency of a specific data interchange drops below the SLA threshold then raise an alert for investigation.

During installation of new BT360 versions, I found that the MSI overwrites the service (and related) configuration files without warning. Can the MSI / installer be modified to prompt the user to either save the configuration files (services, logging, etc.) somewhere or at least inform the user that the files will be overwritten?

For the MBV log file - file is generated, but deleted right after it is imported to the BizTalk360 database. Is there a parameter that we can set to archive the XML or simply keep it instead of deleting it after the execution?
