Originally posted by **suresh-kandoth** March 27, 2023 When we attempt to connect to a database server or endpoint, we get the Connection Error dialog. It is a large window with error message at the top and lot of blank white space in the bottom half. ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/25985186/228081500-008d658b-cdbd-41c4-b847-322e8b330a68.png) Can we provide Connection error troubleshooting links so the user can look up steps to address the problem or error: [Troubleshooting connectivity issues and other errors with Azure SQL Database and Azure SQL Managed Instance](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-sql/database/troubleshoot-common-errors-issues?view=azuresql) [Troubleshoot connectivity issues in SQL Server](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/troubleshoot/sql/database-engine/connect/resolve-connectivity-errors-overview) [Connect to a SQL Server virtual machine on Azure](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-sql/virtual-machines/windows/ways-to-connect-to-sql)

Hi @suresh-kandoth

We are planning to make improvements to the dialog in future releases, and will keep this request into consideration to improve user experience with diagnostics.
