    BetterPortal — Bookmark Manager for Azure Portal
    
      Azure portal too slow? Losing your context and train of thought between page loads? Try this extension!
    
      BetterPortal is a fast, keyboard-driven bookmark and history overlay for Azure Portal — so your most-used resources are always one shortcut away.
    
      Press Ctrl+Space (Cmd+Space on Mac) anywhere in the Azure Portal to instantly open an overlay to your bookmarks and recent Azure history, grouped by directory.
    
      ---
      🔖 Bookmark Azure resources instantly
      Save any resource page — VMs, App Services, Storage Accounts, Key Vaults, databases — with a single keypress. Add custom aliases so resources are easy to recognise at a glance.
    
      📜 Automatic history tracking
      Every Azure resource you visit is remembered automatically. Jump back to anything you've opened recently without hunting through the portal's own navigation. Promote any history item to a permanent bookmark with one key.
    
      🏢 Multi-tenant & cross-directory navigation
      Work across multiple Azure AD tenants? BetterPortal groups resources by directory and handles cross-tenant navigation automatically — injecting the right tenant GUID so you always land in the correct directory. Rename directories with friendly aliases.
    
      🔄 Cross-device sync
      Optionally sync bookmarks across all your devices via your Chrome account (up to 150 bookmarks). Disabled by default — your data stays local unless you opt in.
    
      🔍 Instant search
      Filter across all bookmarks and history by name, resource type, or subscription — instantly, across all your tenants.
    
      📋 One-click copy
      Copy any resource's full navigation URL (ready to paste into a ticket or doc), or copy a directory's tenant GUID directly from the group header.
    
      🎹 Keyboard-first workflow
      Navigate entirely without a mouse. All shortcuts are fully remappable in Settings → Keybinds:
    
      - Ctrl+Space — open/close overlay
      - ↑ ↓ or j k — navigate items
      - gg / G — jump to first/last item
      - Ctrl+d / Ctrl+u — jump down/up 5 items
      - Enter — open resource
      - t — open in new tab
      - / — search
      - a — bookmark current page
      - d — delete
      - e — rename bookmark or directory
      - y — copy URL
      - ? — settings
      - Esc — close
    
      🌙 Dark & light themes
      Matches your workflow preference. Dark mode is the default.
    
      📦 Import & export
      Back up your bookmarks as JSON. Useful for migration, sharing, or keeping a local backup alongside sync.
    
      ---
      Who is this for?
      BetterPortal is built for Azure engineers, cloud architects, DevOps and platform teams, and anyone who spends significant time navigating Azure Portal resources across multiple subscriptions and directories.
    
      ---
      🔒 Privacy
      All data stays in your browser. BetterPortal does not transmit any information to external servers. Bookmarks and history are stored locally using Chrome's built-in extension storage. No account required. Bookmark sync (optional) uses Chrome's own sync infrastructure — still no external servers.
