Bias Analysis

Detected Bias Types

windows_tools
Summary
The documentation page demonstrates several Windows biases: PowerShell syntax and variables are used throughout, including in Azure CLI examples; instructions for installing prerequisites mention PowerShell before Azure CLI; and Windows parameter file examples are presented before Linux equivalents. Additionally, some steps (such as using Microsoft Graph SDK and variable assignment) assume a Windows/PowerShell environment, with no explicit Linux shell alternatives or guidance.
Recommendations
  • Provide Bash shell equivalents for all variable assignments and scripting steps, especially for Azure CLI usage.
  • List Linux and Windows parameter file examples side-by-side or alternate their order to avoid Windows-first bias.
  • Clarify that Azure CLI can be used natively on Linux/macOS and provide installation instructions for those platforms.
  • For steps requiring Microsoft Graph SDK, offer guidance for Linux users (e.g., using Python SDK or CLI alternatives) or note cross-platform compatibility.
  • Avoid using PowerShell-specific syntax (e.g., `$variable = value`, backticks for line continuation) in CLI examples; use Bash syntax or provide both.
