Summary
The documentation exclusively describes enabling managed identity via the Azure portal, with no mention of command-line or scripting alternatives. While the portal is cross-platform, the absence of CLI (Azure CLI, Bash) or PowerShell examples means users on Linux or those preferring automation are underserved. There is a subtle Windows bias in that the portal is often associated with Windows workflows, and no Linux-specific tools or instructions are provided.
Recommendations
  • Add Azure CLI examples for enabling managed identity (system-assigned and user-assigned) to support Linux and automation scenarios.
  • Include PowerShell examples for parity, but ensure CLI instructions are presented before or alongside PowerShell.
  • Explicitly state that the Azure portal is accessible from any OS, but highlight automation-friendly alternatives for cross-platform users.
  • Where screenshots are used, clarify that the UI is the same on all platforms, or provide CLI output examples for Linux users.
