Summary
The documentation provides step-by-step instructions for enabling/disabling SFTP support in Azure Blob Storage using the Azure Portal, PowerShell, and Azure CLI. PowerShell examples are given equal prominence to Azure CLI, and are presented before CLI examples in each section. This ordering and inclusion of PowerShell may indicate a slight Windows bias, as PowerShell is primarily a Windows tool (though cross-platform now), and Windows administrators are more likely to use it. There are no Linux-specific shell or tool examples (e.g., Bash scripts, native Linux commands), nor is there mention of Linux-specific patterns or considerations.
Recommendations
- Consider providing Bash script examples alongside PowerShell, especially for tasks that can be performed via Azure CLI, to better serve Linux users.
- Explicitly mention that Azure CLI commands work on Linux, macOS, and Windows, and provide any relevant platform-specific notes (e.g., installation, authentication differences).
- If PowerShell is included, clarify that it is available cross-platform, but also highlight native Linux alternatives where appropriate.
- Review related content and next steps to ensure Linux users are equally supported (e.g., connecting from Linux SFTP clients, troubleshooting on Linux).
