Mobile authenticator to include application name in the push notification
Mobile authenticator could include the name of the application that wants to authenticate. This could increase security as the users knows which application is asking them to authenticate.

AzureAD must log events from empty User Agent strings
It seems that AzureAD does not log any login attempts or successful log in from applications presenting a null or empty UserAgent string. This effectively hides the logins from AzureAD logs and from Cloud App Security. This is critical security flaw which allows rogue applications to authenticate without any logging and invisible to various reports and tools. According to support ticket we have opened this seems to be intentional which to our mind is completely nonsense and beyond any logic.
Any login attempt, successful or otherwise should be logged, regardless of user agent string. Either log it or block the attempt, but allowing it and not logging the event is a security hole.

Provide More Details On the Preview Monitoring Metrics
Currently the Monitoring endpoint has several Virtual Machine metrics that end in ' (Preview)' in the display name. While they are lightly documented at https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/monitoring-and-diagnostics/monitoring-supported-metrics#microsoftcomputevirtualmachines we have run into issues where they aren't present for all virtual machines...and there is no official documentation about when they should or should not be present. Azure Support Case 118091018973846 contains more specific details. Apparently, they only are populated for certain combinations of OS SKU/Machine Size/deployment strategy, but none of that is documented in a user-visible way.

Make VM Type more simple to understand like in Google Cloud
There are so many different type of VM that is available it hard to know what is best one to use at anytime, also there are very limit in custom. My idea is to remove the version system (e.g. v5) and just keep it simple like in google cloud and allow people to have a custom machine type where there pick how many vCore and RAM there needed.

VM scale sets should allow addition of Public IP address to individual machines
Currently we can spin a VM scaleset of X VMs but we can only attach a public IP address to all VMs in the scaleset and not individual machines. We need an ability to attach public Ip addresses to individual VMs in a VM scaleset

Create a Service tag to represent just the VNets an NSG is applied to.
I would like to have an NSG Service Tag that represents just the VNets that the NSG is applied to. The current VirtualNetwork tag ends up representing far more than just the VNets the NSG is applied to. Using CIDRs or ASGs for this use case is a bit cumbersome and requires more administration and auditing than a Service tag.

Why not available in Andorra?
Why are Azure subscriptions not available in Andorra? There are many IT companies here. We would certainly need Azure access!

Be able to easily select all domains in the metrics graph.
Hello,
My company owns quite a lot of domains and we run them in Azure.In the metrics graph you can easily add a domain to show some basic statistics on it, like amount of queries for example.
If I'd want to add all my 140 domains I would have to add them 1 by 1 to the graph. This is not a good solution.What I'd want is an easy way to see the total amount of queries for all domains. It could be solved by adding a select all box in the metrics graph for example. As queries is something that you pay for I think that this is a basic feature that you should be able to easily see.
I know you can get this information by adding DNS analytics.
But in my opinion this is such a basic feature that you should be able to see it without adding additional add on services (which also comes with an added cost).Hello,

Option to disable sql database should be there in Azure
Option to disable sql database should be there in Azure. if there are multiple teams involved in the process and time to time changed. Someone created database and if we are not able to locate database due to multiple dependencies of resources then disabling database will be very easy and quick process by which we can get immediate results of impact. During impact we can enable it again. Exporting db and importing is a time consuming task, we can achieve this by simply one click to disable

Bug: Slot resource creation behavior different based on "kind" of web site
Creating a slot resource outside of a Microsoft.Web/sites' resources property (creating the slot in a separate deployment or template) is allowed when the "kind" of Microsoft.Web/site that the slot belongs to is "webapp." When creating a slot in a separate deployment for a Microsoft.Web/site of the kind "functionapp" it throws an InternalError with no helpful debugging information.
If this is intentional it is not documented.

zipping and unzipping folders/container as a buil-in api for the blob storage
It would be nice to be able to zip multiple folders or a container on another container.
The purpose being that if you have a lot of small files, it would be super slow to download them on another server over the network one by one.3 votes -

Azure AppGW WAF supress return code
Azure Application Gateway Web Application Firewall could allow to supress return code ("cloaking") in its rules set.
Barracuda WAF has this feature and, currently, there is no way to replace this solution with Azure WAF.

Improve your Free/Trial/Entry level offers
Azure is prohibitively expensive for small businesses and new/poor developers.
£150 for 30 days is not long enough to get up and running and to make a viable website/app to cover the costs.
Suggestions:
-Allow users to use the free credits over 12 or 6 or even 3 months.
-Or return to your previous offer with free monthly credits for a year.
-Or offer SSL on the shared plan. (sites without SSL are not an option)£50-£60/pm for a basic website with custom domain and SSL is ridiculous.
I feel my only option is to abandon Azure and look at something like Google's GCP (who are offering $300 for a year), which means I have wasted many years learning the Microsoft and Azure stack.
I really hope you can review your current offers and make Azure a better choice.
Thanks

expand Https filter options for the other imageType filter query parameters (Clipart, Line, Photo, etc.) for the Bing Images Search API
Right now, the AnimatedGifHttps filter query parameter is the only option that returns results from an Https address. It works great, but there is no equal for static images. Many apps can only display Https content.
