BizTalk Map Viewer

Quick start

Open a .btm file and read its links.

VS Code extensionlambogenius.biztalk-map-viewerFree · MIT license

Open your first map

  1. 1
    Open a folder

    that contains a BizTalk project, or any folder with .btm files.

  2. 2
    Click a .btm file in the Explorer.

    It opens in the BizTalk Map Viewer, because the extension registers itself as the default editor for *.btm.

  3. 3
    Check the schemas

    at the top: SOURCE on the left, TARGET on the right.

  4. 4
    Pick a page

    in the drop-down, then read the links. Type in the filter box to find a field.

No folder open? Run BizTalk: Open Map Viewer from the Command Palette (Ctrl+Shift+P) and pick a .btm file in the dialog.

A .btm file still opens as XML?

VS Code may remember an earlier editor choice. Right-click the file, choose Open With…, select BizTalk Map Viewer, and then Configure default editor for '*.btm'. To read the raw XML, use Open With… and Text Editor.
