What is a one sentence summary of your feature request?
Add functionality to allow import from csv of multiple instances when adding manual connections.
Please describe your idea in detail. What is your problem, why do you feel this idea is the best solution, etc.
Currently, if a customer is using non-default ports for some of their instances (something other than 1433), then the 0-SQL_InstanceDiscovery job will fail to pull those ones back. Now if a customer has over 50 instances like this as an example, this would be extremely tedious to have to manually open up the Connections UI to create a new connection for each one and specify those ports. There is a workaround way to insert into the appropriate connection table in the database to add bulk instances, but having more supported functionality OTB would help a lot in these scenarios.
How do you currently solve the challenges you have by not having this feature?
Either add one by one or update connection table in database with custom solution.
