Quick filter - textbox for searching in applications
Quick filter for searching in applications.
When you have many applications in your BizTalk environment you are forced to scroll down to the bottom of the page and use pagination in order to view next applications. I think it would be a great idea to have a textbox at the beginning of the page where you can type in parts of your application name or description to filter your list.In my case I currently have 5 pages to scroll thru, not very user friendly.

Default environment
I have 2 BizTalk environments configured in BizTalk360: One for which my BizTalk360 is activated. For the other one, the licence is disabled.
When launching the BizTalk360 web interface, by default it tries to connect to my disabled environment and asks me to activate my licence. It would have been nice if it connected to the environment for which my licence is activated. Perhaps an option allowing to define an environment as the default one could help avoid this issue.3 votesIn the latest release of BizTalk360 Version (9.0.2151.2808) users can able reorder the sequence of the environments. It will reflects in all the sections where environments are listed.

Update Custom Notification Channel DLL
It is currently possible to change the name of a custom notification channel when clicking edit. It would be handy to be able to update the DLL for that notification channel. If a new DLL is uploaded it could check whether it differs from the current DLL content saved in the database.
This way it is possible to update a channel without having to remove it so we don't lose all our alarm configurations.5 votesThis feature has come as part of the version 8.9.5 release. Sing up to our newsletter to be notified of upcoming releases

Schedule Disable & Enable back Receive Locations of BizTalk application.
We have a scenario where we need to schedule to Disable & Enable back Receive Locations of BizTalk application, and this has to be done After Hours every month during the monthly Server maintenance nights.
Currently we are doing this manually where we disable Receive Locations at 5pm and then Enable it back at 10pm.
So before the server maintenance window begins, we Disable the Receive locations. By doing this, the various LOB systems hold and queue up the events they need to push to BizTalk within their own systems until this service window. After the maintenance window is closed,…
5 votesHi ,
This scenario can be achieved using the "Automated Task" feature which was released in the latest BizTalk360 version 10.3.

Outage Management integration for Artifacts.
We can group artifacts to support an outage. For example we can support an outage to an email system by grouping Artifacts that are pointed to that system and then click a "button" to disable all the send/receive ports pointing to that system. It integrates through SCOM using an API to but those same porting in maintenance mode, also.

Add re-occurring maintenance window options and a section to view scheduled windows
With version 8.8 we now have the ability to schedule multiple maintenance windows in the future. Thank you very much!
Can we add the ability to schedule maintenance window re-occurrence. Including a way to view and modify them.
If possible it would be nice if we could or schedule skipping an occurrence or simply temporarily disable and re-enable it later, rather than having to delete and recreate.

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…

Allow "Is In Range" option for EventId filter in Advanced Event Viewer
This would allow us to get the logs of a specific application when all applications have a predefined range of EventIds.
