Summary:
The documentation provides extensive examples using Azure PowerShell, which is primarily a Windows-centric tool, and does not offer equivalent Bash or Linux shell scripting examples. While Azure CLI is cross-platform, the PowerShell examples are more detailed and prevalent, and there are no explicit Linux/Bash shell command examples for tasks such as token retrieval. This may disadvantage Linux users or those who prefer Bash scripting.
Recommendations:
- Add Bash shell scripting examples for token retrieval and other automation tasks, especially in sections where PowerShell scripts are provided.
- Clarify that Azure CLI commands are cross-platform and can be run on Linux, macOS, and Windows.
- Where PowerShell is used for scripting, provide equivalent Bash (curl/jq) examples to ensure Linux parity.
- Explicitly mention and demonstrate how to perform key operations (such as HTTP GET to the local MSI endpoint) using common Linux tools (curl, wget) alongside PowerShell.
- Review all code tabs to ensure that Linux users have a clear, first-class path for all documented scenarios.
