Summary
The documentation provides a PowerShell example for retrieving tokens from the managed identity endpoint, but does not offer an equivalent example using Bash, curl, or other common Linux tools. This may disadvantage Linux users, as PowerShell is primarily a Windows tool and not universally available on Linux systems. The lack of Linux-native command-line examples (e.g., using curl or wget) is a notable gap, especially given the prevalence of Linux containers and development environments in cloud-native scenarios.
Recommendations
  • Add Linux-native examples for retrieving tokens, such as using curl or wget in Bash.
  • Ensure that command-line examples are provided for both Windows (PowerShell) and Linux (Bash/curl) environments, especially in sections where direct HTTP requests are shown.
  • Explicitly mention cross-platform compatibility for CLI commands and clarify any OS-specific requirements.
  • Review other sections for implicit Windows-first patterns and ensure parity in tool recommendations and examples.
