Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a strong Windows bias by exclusively using PowerShell cmdlets (New-AzDataFactoryV2LinkedServiceEncryptedCredential, Set-AzDataFactoryV2LinkedService) and referencing DPAPI, a Windows-specific encryption technology. All examples and instructions assume the use of PowerShell and Windows tooling, with no mention of Linux equivalents, Bash, or cross-platform alternatives. Prerequisites specifically require PowerShell 7.0+, but do not clarify Linux support or provide Linux-specific guidance.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent instructions and examples for Linux environments, including Bash or cross-platform CLI usage if available.
  • Clarify whether the cmdlets and DPAPI-based encryption are supported on Linux self-hosted integration runtime nodes, or provide alternative approaches for Linux.
  • Explicitly state platform requirements and limitations for credential encryption, including any differences in behavior or support between Windows and Linux.
  • If PowerShell is required, include installation and usage instructions for PowerShell on Linux, and test/confirm that the cmdlets work as described.
  • Mention or link to any cross-platform tools or APIs that can be used for credential encryption in Azure Data Factory.
