Summary
The documentation provides PowerShell-based examples (specifically using the Microsoft Graph PowerShell module) for configuring password expiry, but does not offer equivalent CLI or scripting examples for Linux/macOS users. There is an implicit assumption that administrators will use PowerShell, which is more common on Windows. No mention is made of cross-platform alternatives such as Azure CLI, Bash, or REST API usage via curl, and there are no Linux/macOS-specific instructions or examples.
Recommendations
- Provide equivalent examples using Azure CLI and/or Bash scripts (e.g., using curl to call Microsoft Graph API), which are natively available on Linux/macOS.
- Explicitly mention that PowerShell Core is cross-platform and provide installation instructions for non-Windows systems, if PowerShell must be used.
- Where possible, present REST API calls with both PowerShell and curl/Bash examples, so users on any OS can follow along.
- Reorder or parallelize examples so that Windows and Linux/macOS approaches are given equal prominence.
- Add a note clarifying that all operations can be performed from any OS, and link to relevant cross-platform tool documentation.
