Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias primarily in the authentication section for generating a Shared Access Signature (SAS). It provides only PowerShell commands (a Windows-centric tool) for generating SAS tokens, without offering equivalent CLI or scripting examples for Linux/macOS users. No Linux-native tools or cross-platform command-line examples (such as Azure CLI or REST API) are mentioned, and PowerShell is presented as the default method. This may hinder Linux users or those working in cross-platform environments.
Recommendations
  • Provide Azure CLI examples for generating SAS tokens, as Azure CLI is cross-platform and widely used on Linux and macOS.
  • Include REST API examples for SAS generation, which are platform-agnostic.
  • When referencing command-line tools, mention both PowerShell and Azure CLI, and present them in parallel or with equal prominence.
  • Explicitly state that PowerShell is one option and provide guidance for users on other operating systems.
  • Review other sections for similar tool-specific instructions and ensure Linux parity throughout the documentation.
