Summary
The documentation exclusively uses PowerShell cmdlets (New-AzDataFactoryV2LinkedServiceEncryptedCredential, Set-AzDataFactoryV2LinkedService) for credential encryption and management, which are Windows-centric. There is no mention of Linux-compatible alternatives, nor are Bash or cross-platform CLI examples provided. The prerequisites explicitly require PowerShell 7.0+, reinforcing a Windows-first approach and omitting guidance for Linux users.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent instructions using Azure CLI or REST API, which are cross-platform.
  • Clarify whether the credential encryption process can be performed on Linux or macOS, and document any limitations.
  • If PowerShell is required, note that PowerShell Core is available on Linux and macOS, and provide installation and usage guidance for those platforms.
  • Add Linux-specific examples or troubleshooting steps for common issues encountered on non-Windows systems.
  • Explicitly state platform requirements and alternatives for users who do not have access to Windows environments.
