Summary
The documentation page, while stating support for both Windows and Linux, provides a detailed example only for a Windows-specific policy (Audit Windows Time Zone). No Linux policy assignment example is shown, and the walkthrough focuses exclusively on Windows parameters and UI options. In the programmatic section, PowerShell is listed prominently alongside CLI and REST, but Linux-specific command-line examples (e.g., Bash, shell scripts) are not provided. The overall flow introduces Windows policies and examples before Linux equivalents, and does not demonstrate parity in guidance for Linux users.
Recommendations
  • Add a parallel example that walks through assigning a Linux-specific policy (e.g., Audit Linux machines for required applications), including screenshots and parameter explanations.
  • Ensure that Linux policies are mentioned with equal prominence and detail as Windows policies in the discovery and assignment sections.
  • Provide Linux-centric command-line examples (e.g., Bash scripts using Azure CLI) in the programmatic access section, and clarify which commands are cross-platform.
  • Explicitly note any differences in prerequisites or assignment steps for Linux machines.
  • Balance screenshots and UI walkthroughs to include Linux policy scenarios, not just Windows.
