I am new to APIM, facing issue when I tries to add maps & pop-up kind of widgets in Developer portal. before adding widgets it was working fine but once I added widgets in Home page shows an error message as
"Oops, something went wrong".
Could not get object 'files/e0987ca1-f458-b546-7697-7be594b35583'
I would like to display well formatted document to our users in the Developer portal,so suggest some good docs or resourceses on customization of Dev portal.
Many Thanks in advance
One of the workaround to save the changes made to layout in APIM developer portal as following:
Go to the developer portal of the APIM Instance > Click on APIs option on right top corner > Click on Edit Layouts option comes in the bottom right corner >
Edit your layout by adding the required options like List of APIs or API History or Widgets and then click on Save button is available on left side.
After making selection, Save option will be enabled to apply changes.

If you have issues when creating the widgets in the Azure APIM Developer portal, Please raise a request to Microsoft Service Team or please send your service name to apimportalfeedback#microsoft.com.

Up until recently, it was possible to customize Azure resource blades by clicking the buttons maked "Add Tiles".
See these out-of-date instructions.
It appears that the latest iteration of the portal has minor changes to the look-and-feel, but has also moved or removed vital controls.
Now there is no clickackable element titled "Add parts" or "Add tiles". The image below shows what my Web App blade currently looks like, and the image below that shows what it had previously looked like.
So, for THIS month at least, how do we begin customizing a blade in the Azure portal?
Here is what the Web App blade used to look like. See the 'Add tiles' buttons that are no longer there.
From Docs:
Since launching dashboards a few months ago, there has been a steady decline in blade customizations and a rapid increase in dashboard customizations. This strong usage trend shows that you prefer customizing dashboards over blades. To support that trend, we will remove the ability to customize blades and dedicate our efforts to enhancing dashboard functionality.
If you customized a blade, your customization will soon be removed. To preserve that customization, pin the customized tiles to a dashboard. Simply right-click the tile and select Pin to dashboard as shown in the following image.
The Azure portal no longer allows customizing blades. This was removed due to low usage and to improve performance. Use dashboards instead.
First of all, why microsoft azure changed the portal UI? In my opinion the oldest is much more clear.
But the question is, i have multiple subscriptions associated with my live id email. When i go to manage.windowsazure.com url and log with my live id, i go to a default subscription, but i need to change it staying on the old portal. Where can i find this option?
On the configuration menu i have just these options:
Thanks!
On the top right corner before configuration menu, you will see Subscriptions filter. Clicking on that will show you all the directories your account is associated with. You can change the directory and can filter subscriptions you wish to see. Please see the screenshot below for more details:
Hello,
I noticed that when i want to swap slots on Azure the whole configuration will also be copied. I have a lot of environment-specific settings that i wanted to have configured automatically on a swap. So for example, i want that the ENVIRONMENT_TYPE of the test slot stays on TEST and doesn't change to DEV. Like you can see in the Screenshot, these preview messages don't really make sense.
Can anybody help me changing this option? How do you handle this?
Thanks a lot, have a nice day!
In the Azure Preview Portal, you can mark individual AppSettings as "Slot Setting" which means that they won't get swapped. This is described at https://azure.microsoft.com/en-gb/documentation/articles/web-sites-staged-publishing/.
You can access the Preview Portal at https://ms.portal.azure.com/. Choose Browse everything and select your Web-App. On the blade for your web-app, there is a box called Deployment Slots. If you select this, it will list the available Deployment slots - choose the one that you wish to modify, and you can then mark the individual App Settings as "Slot Setting".
I had a free trial with windows azure, I was out of the country and it ran out.
I have now upgraded to a pay-as-you-go account. All good.
However, my previous websites still run off my old subscription, is there any way to reactivate these websites using my new pay-as-you-go subscription?
If you upgraded the existing free account versus opened a new pay-as-you-go account, this should have been a seamless transition.
You can contact support - use the Billing Questions option and then select Transfer Subscription, and they should be able to help you.
Alternatively, of course, you could redeploy your assets to the new subscription.
I created a "Billing" ticket with microsoft. There is a type of ticket as you go through their wizard specifically for this. They were able to upgrade my "Free Trial" to the pay as you go AFTER i had let the free trial expire. The downside was that all my virtual machines were deleted. It did however give me access to my websites and storage without any problem. I was able to recreate all the VM's using the storage vhd's.
My experience on this is that I just redeploy to a new website I created under new subscription. I didn't find a way to move them over to new subscription.
You can move SQL Azure to new subscription, but not website. To move SQL Azure to new subscription, you will need to use old Azure portal management. Follow this step:
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/windowsazure/archive/2012/03/07/moving-sql-azure-servers-between-subscriptions.aspx
Note that you are moving the server where the database lives. So, if you have more than one DB in the same server, everything will be moved.
You can move Azure SQL DB from one subscription to another on https://manage.windowsazure.com
Both subscriptions should in the same Default Directory. If they are in different directories then select:
Subscriptions
Manage subscriptions/directory
Select subscription and click "Edit" at the bottom.
Choose directory where other subscription and click "Next".
When both subscriptions in the same directory.
Choose "SQL Databases"
Select proper server
and in Quick Glance you should see "Change subscription"
The documentation in the link stack247 posted is now outdated. To change the target subscription for a database, you have to change the target subscription of the server for the database. There are several ways to navigate to the server, but here is just one example:
Click on the database tab
Click on the name of the database you want to change
In the dashboard view, click on the link to the server in the quick glance section. This is on the bottom right corner of the view.
In the dashboard view, click on the Change Subscription link in the quick glance section. This is on the right side of the view.
Change the Target Subscription, and click the check button.
As far as changing the subscription for a website or cloud service, I would do what is recommended above; and republish the website or cloud service. When you publish, change the settings to target a different subscription by clicking on the previous button.
---------Update----------
If you have a bunch of assets that need to be moved to another account, create a ticket with the Azure helpdesk. You will have to do the above and switch out the accounts for the databases/servers, but Microsoft is able to run a script on their end that moves everything. Depending on the size of your assets, it may take a little longer. Fortunately for me, it was only a day to move everything. I would recommend doing this instead of publishing everything a second time.

All the solutions mentioned above are now outdated.
In the https://portal.azure.com/,
For SQL Servers, go in the "SQL Servers" menu, select the server to change. In the Overview, click on the Edit button, located right to the name of the subscription.
For WebApps, go to the "App Service plans" menu, select your plan, click on the Resource Group and in the Overview, click on the Edit button, located right to the name of the subscription.
