Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a bias toward Windows environments. It provides explicit PowerShell examples and references Windows-specific tools (ARMClient.exe) for authentication, without offering equivalent Linux-friendly alternatives. The order of examples often presents Windows-centric methods before cross-platform or Linux-native options. There is a lack of guidance for Linux users, such as using curl, bash, or platform-neutral authentication methods.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux-specific examples for authentication and API queries, such as using Azure CLI (az account get-access-token) or curl for REST calls.
  • Mention cross-platform alternatives to ARMClient.exe, such as using Azure CLI or scripting with bash.
  • Include bash or shell script examples alongside PowerShell for parity.
  • Clarify which tools and commands are cross-platform, and note any platform limitations.
  • Reorder examples to present platform-neutral or cross-platform methods first, followed by platform-specific (Windows/PowerShell) instructions.
