Summary
The documentation exclusively provides troubleshooting steps using Windows PowerShell and the MSOnline module, with instructions to open an elevated Windows PowerShell prompt. There are no examples or guidance for performing the same tasks on Linux or macOS, nor is there mention of cross-platform alternatives such as Azure CLI or Microsoft Graph API. This creates a strong Windows bias and may exclude users on other operating systems.
Recommendations
  • Add equivalent instructions using Azure CLI, which is cross-platform and works on Linux and macOS.
  • Include examples using Microsoft Graph API for service principal management.
  • Explicitly state which steps are Windows-specific and provide alternatives for other platforms.
  • Mention prerequisites and installation steps for cross-platform tools.
  • Reorder instructions to present cross-platform solutions before or alongside Windows-specific ones.
