autoshut down should be done on idle time basis, there is no such option
Currently, there is the only option to auto shutdown on a fixed time, its discouraging for those who want to use the cloud for personal use, I prefer the system should be shut down based on custom idle time. so that we no need to worry when we planned to use for personal use.

Give contributor permissions on resource group to service principal creating DevTest Labs vms
Currently DevTest Labs has a setting to give default Contributor access to the underlying VM resource group when instantiating a DevTest Labs VM. However, we noticed this doesn't apply to a service principal instantiating such a DevTest Labs VM (Microsoft.DevTestLab/labs/virtualmachines type) from an ARM template in a VSTS release. It only gets Reader access to the resource group. Please allow this setting to apply to service principals as well. We would like to use the same VSTS release and service principal to apply extra VM extensions (like antimalware) to the underlying VM (type Microsoft.Compute/virtualMachines) after provisioning the DevTest Labs VM.

Deployment Status
When a server is being deployed, there is no way to see what part of deployment it is working on.
If you deploy a VM in "normal" Azure Portal, there is a button available to see the current deployments. Would be great if this was also possible within an DevTest lab.

Do not use an existing IP address range already in use for a VNet when creating the VNet of a new lab
If you create a new lab it will create a new VNet with the ip range 10.0.0.0 even though that range is already in use in anothe VNet in the subscription.
It would be nice to use a different available range, ask the user to define a new one or at least let the user aknowledge this and create it anyway1 voteThanks for the feedback. For those who would like to see this feature sooner, please vote for it.

VSTS agent on Ubuntu
It would be great to have an artifact with VSTS agent available on Ubuntu. As I will be building docker images for deployment in Kubernetes cluster, the kubectl command would be the perfect topping.

Report the id of the secret used by a Virtual Machine in the resource view
It would be great if the Microsoft.DevTestLab provider reported the name/id of the secret that is in use for virtual machine.
This would potentially allow us to script the creation of RDP access files, etc.
1 voteThanks for submitting the idea! Could you please elaborate a little bit more what information do you want DevTest Labs to expose? Is it the secret used for VM logon? What do you mean by name/id of the secret?
