Summary:
The documentation provides only a PowerShell script example for accessing audit logs programmatically, with no equivalent example for Linux or cross-platform shells (e.g., Bash/cURL). The script uses PowerShell-specific cmdlets and patterns, and there is no mention of Linux-native tools or guidance for non-Windows users. The only automation example is Windows-centric, and the documentation does not acknowledge or address Linux or macOS environments.
Recommendations:
- Provide a Bash/cURL example for accessing the Microsoft Graph API to retrieve audit logs, including authentication and pagination handling.
- Explicitly mention that the API can be accessed from any platform and provide cross-platform code samples.
- Include instructions or links for using common Linux tools (e.g., wget, curl, jq) to perform the same tasks as the PowerShell script.
- Reorganize the automation section to present both Windows (PowerShell) and Linux/macOS (Bash/cURL) examples side by side, or lead with a platform-neutral API example.
- Add a note clarifying that the PowerShell script can be run in Azure Cloud Shell (which supports PowerShell and Bash), but also provide a Bash example for parity.
