Runbook Libraries / Repositories
It would be nice to bundle up runbooks related to a certain integration into a library of child repository in Azure. Let me do some explaining on this. Currently I have 235 runbooks for automation which makes managing my environment a little difficult over time. It would be nice to bundle up runbooks related to a solution such as F5 integration. A library could contain the PowerShell module that we created for F5 integration, but the real power would be adding in runbooks that use that module. So I could have a collection of runbooks like Create-VIP, Update-VIP, Delete-VIP, Remove-From-Pool,…
17 votesThanks for this suggestion!
Do you want the collection of runbooks and modules visually grouped in a folder-like structure, or are you looking for the ability to export (either to source control or locally) as a solution and to share the collection in your team? Or are you looking for both?
Thanks,

Add Microsoft.Online.SharePoint.PowerShell Module
It'd be great if you could include the latest Microsoft.Online.SharePoint.PowerShell Module in the gallery.
6 votesWe can reach out to the SharePoint team to see if this will be possible. It would also be good for you to create a request on their feedback page: https://sharepoint.uservoice.com/ so they have a request tracking this as well.

Provide runbooks in gallery for common lab setups, e.g. Exchange Server
It's common to use Azure to fire up some VMs to create a dev/test lab. Gallery samples could be provided for common setups, e.g. I want an Exchange Server created & configured so I can test software that connects to Exchange with windows authentication. Presumably there's a few common scenarios that people create in Azure and it'd be great to have a starting point in the Gallery showing how to do this with Automation.
3 votesThanks for posting this! We are investigating providing additional Automation samples. It really helps us to understand what some of the most common scenarios are when we build out samples.
Is creating and configuring an Exchange server for a dev/test environment the most important? Please post additional suggestions or add onto this if you feel there are any other samples that we should prioritize.

SharePointOnline.CSOM/0.1.0 doesn't use the Microsoft.SharePointOnline.CSOM latest version
In our PowerShell gallery https://www.powershellgallery.com/packages/SharePointOnline.CSOM/0.1.0 , it is only use Microsoft.SharePointOnline.CSOM.16.1.7918.1200, which is a old version. May I know when it will use the latest version Microsoft.SharePointOnline.CSOM.16.1.8613.1200 ? And is it possible to update the PowerShell module "SharePointOnline.CSOM" when the Microsoft.SharePointOnline.CSOM nuget is updated ? Thanks !

Module Request: Skype Online Connector. Some Teams cmdlets only available in this module.
Some Teams administrative functions (converting users to Teams Only Mode) are only available in the Skpye module. This functionality would help facilitate our full transition to Teams

Module Update Improvements
Modules that are now pretty much essential for DSC are not updated through Update Modules as they're not part of the azure sdk, e.g. ComputerManagementDsc, StorageDSC. Option to update these rather than going to the gallery and importing again would be better.
On the modules page show current and new version numbers if applicable so you know what's out of date.
