Summary
The documentation page exhibits Windows bias primarily in its guidance for REST API authentication, referencing only the Windows PowerShell 'Get-AzAccessToken' command for obtaining a Bearer token. No equivalent Linux or cross-platform CLI instructions (such as Azure CLI or Bash examples) are provided. The only tool mentioned for authentication is PowerShell, which is traditionally associated with Windows environments. This may lead Linux or macOS users to feel unsupported or confused about how to perform the same operation on their platforms.
Recommendations
  • Add Azure CLI examples for obtaining the Bearer access token (e.g., 'az account get-access-token'), which work on Linux, macOS, and Windows.
  • Include Bash or shell script examples for making REST API calls, demonstrating cross-platform usage.
  • Reference both PowerShell and Azure CLI in the authentication note, making it clear that either can be used depending on the user's environment.
  • Consider adding a section or table comparing methods for retrieving access tokens across different platforms (Windows, Linux, macOS).
  • Review other sections for similar tool-specific references and ensure parity in examples and instructions for Linux users.
