Overview

Azure Logic Apps Standard provides built-in service provider connectors that run in-process within the runtime, replacing BizTalk Server adapters, pipeline components, accelerators, and engine features. This document maps every BizTalk component to its Logic Apps Standard equivalent, including available triggers and actions.

Key Concepts

Concept	BizTalk Server	Logic Apps Standard
Transport	Adapter (Send/Receive)	Service Provider Connector
Message Processing	Pipeline Component	Built-in Action (XML Operations, Flat File, etc.)
Routing	Publish/Subscribe (MessageBox)	Workflow triggers + conditions
Orchestration	XLANG/s Orchestration	Workflow definition (JSON)
Trading Partners	Party / Agreement	Integration Account
Business Rules	Business Rules Engine (BRE)	Rules Engine action
Maps / Transforms	XSLT Map	XML Operations → Xslt action
Schema Validation	XML Validator pipeline	XML Operations → XmlValidation action

When to Use Integration Account

Use an Integration Account only when the target design requires Integration Account-specific capabilities, such as:

• B2B/EDI processing with X12, EDIFACT, or AS2 actions
• Trading partners, agreements, and partner resolution
• Shared enterprise artifact management where schemas/maps/partner artifacts are centrally managed outside the workflow project

Do NOT choose Integration Account for ordinary XML/XSLT/schema usage if Logic Apps Standard artifact folders are sufficient.

If Integration Account is chosen:

• use it consistently for the flow's deployable artifacts; do not split artifacts between Integration Account and Logic App artifact folders
• plan for the required app setting WORKFLOWS_INTEGRATION_ACCOUNT_ID
• plan for the required app setting WORKFLOW_INTEGRATION_ACCOUNT_CALLBACK_URL
• deploy the Integration Account first, then set WORKFLOWS_INTEGRATION_ACCOUNT_ID to the deployed Integration Account resource ID, for example /subscriptions/{subId}/resourceGroups/{rg}/providers/Microsoft.Logic/integrationAccounts/{name}
• retrieve the deployed callback URL and set WORKFLOW_INTEGRATION_ACCOUNT_CALLBACK_URL to that real value
• plan a separate follow-on task to upload the required Integration Account artifacts after provisioning

Adapters Not in Registry (Gaps)

The following BizTalk adapters are not covered by the connector registry. This table provides recommended migration paths.

#	BizTalk Adapter	Recommended Logic Apps Equivalent	Migration Notes
1	POP3	Office 365 Outlook / Gmail connector (managed API)	BizTalk POP3 receive adapter → use managed API connector for email receive. No built-in service provider.
2	Windows SharePoint Services	SharePoint connector (managed API)	Use the SharePoint Online managed API connector. On-premises SharePoint requires on-premises data gateway.
3	WCF-NetNamedPipe	— (no equivalent)	Inter-process communication only. Migrate to HTTP/HTTPS for service-to-service calls.
4	TIBCO Rendezvous	— (no equivalent)	No Logic Apps connector. Consider Azure Service Bus as messaging middleware, or use Custom Code (local function) with TIBCO SDK.
5	TIBCO EMS	Azure Service Bus / RabbitMQ	No direct connector. Migrate messaging patterns to Service Bus or RabbitMQ.
6	JD Edwards OneWorld	HTTP connector + JDE REST APIs	No direct connector. Use HTTP action to call JD Edwards REST/JSON APIs.
7	JD Edwards EnterpriseOne	HTTP connector + JDE REST APIs	No direct connector. Use HTTP action to call JD Edwards REST/JSON APIs.

#	BizTalk Orchestration Shape	Logic Apps Equivalent	Notes
22	Call Orchestration	Invoke nested workflow (synchronous)	Use the built-in "Invoke Workflow" action.
23	Start Orchestration	HTTP POST to another workflow's trigger URL	Fire and forget; async invocation.
24	Direct Binding	— (no equivalent)	No MessageBox pub/sub. Use explicit triggers/actions or Service Bus for decoupling.
25	Correlation Set	Stateful workflow + correlationId / Service Bus sessions	Use tracked properties or Service Bus session IDs for correlation.
26	Role Link	— (no equivalent)	No equivalent. Use configuration/parameters for dynamic endpoint resolution.

Transactions

#	BizTalk Orchestration Shape	Logic Apps Equivalent	Notes
27	Atomic Transaction (scope)	— (no distributed transactions)	Logic Apps does not support distributed transactions. Use compensation/retry patterns.
28	Long-Running Transaction (scope)	Scope with error handling + compensation logic	Model with scopes and runAfter for compensating actions.

Engine & Platform Feature Mappings

BizTalk Server engine and platform features mapped to Logic Apps Standard equivalents.

Messaging Engine

#	BizTalk Feature	Logic Apps Equivalent	Notes

3	Debatching (envelope)	SplitOn on trigger	Set splitOn property on trigger to split an array into individual workflow runs.
4	Message Enrichment	Inline actions (HTTP, DB query) + Compose	Call external services mid-workflow to enrich the message.
5	Ordered Delivery	Service Bus sessions / concurrency: 1	Set workflow concurrency to 1, or use Service Bus sessions for FIFO.
6	Retry / Resubmit	Built-in retry policies + resubmit from portal	Configure retry on each action. Resubmit failed runs from Azure Portal or API.

Integration Patterns

#	BizTalk Feature	Logic Apps Equivalent	Notes
7	Sequential Convoy	Stateful workflow + Service Bus sessions	Correlate related messages in order using session-enabled queues.

BizTalk Expressions → Logic Apps Expressions

BizTalk orchestrations use XLANG/s expressions (a C#-like syntax) for string manipulation, message construction, property access, and logic. Logic Apps Standard uses the Workflow Definition Language (WDL) expression syntax.

Expression Language Comparison

Aspect	BizTalk (XLANG/s)	Logic Apps (WDL)
Syntax	C#-like: myVar = "hello" + " world";	Template: @{concat('hello', ' world')}
Type system	Strong-typed .NET (string, int, XmlDocument, etc.)	Dynamic (string, integer, float, boolean, array, object, null)
Evaluation	Compile-time	Runtime
Access style	Dot notation: msg.Property	Function calls: triggerBody()?['Property']
Null handling	Standard C# null checks	Safe navigation: ?['key'] (returns null, no error)
String format	String.Format("Hello {0}", name)	@{concat('Hello ', variables('name'))} or string interpolation
Where defined	Expression shapes, message assignments	Inline in any action input field, Compose action

BizTalk Concept	Logic Apps Equivalent	Notes
Promoted properties (routing)	Trigger outputs / headers / tracked properties	Use triggerOutputs()?['headers'] or tracked properties for visibility.
Distinguished fields (orchestration access)	Direct body path access: triggerBody()?['field']	JSON path navigation replaces distinguished fields.
Context property read (msg(BTS.ReceivePortName))	triggerOutputs()?['headers']['x-ms-workflow-name']	Some system properties available in trigger metadata.
Context property write (promote)	Set Variable + Tracked Properties / response headers	No direct equivalent. Use variables or tracked properties.
Message type (BTS.MessageType)	Content-Type header / schema name in XML actions	Not directly equivalent.
Correlation tokens	correlationId / Service Bus SessionId	Use tracked clientTrackingId or SB sessions.
