  1. Add support for ADAL SQL library

    Currently it is not possible to connect to Azure SQL databases by using the ADAL option, like AD Username and Password.

    Please make ADAL SQL available in powershell when running in the cloud.

  2. Signed runbooks for Azure cloud platform worker

    Please add support to run only signed Runbooks so that we can be sure that no modifications are made for our runbooks.
    It should work not only on Hybrid worker as it is now, but also on Azure cloud platform worker.
    We should be able to provide our certificates for signature checks (better via KeyVault integration).

    Creation of run to check the Logic app trigger history:

    We already have Azure PS cmdlets to get the logic history, but it cannot be used in the Runbook. Please enable a way to use the following commands

  4. Possibility to Invoke a PS Command inside Azure VM Operating systems

    Include "Invoke-AzRMVMRunCommand" cmdlet to the library, to easily run consistent scripts to stop inside servers services before Deallocating the AzureVM

  5. Update Azure Module option for ALL the MS modules

    When you choose the option "Update Azure modules" update ALL the Microsoft modules not just the Azure Core modules. Alternatively display for which modules there are updates available.
