Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. Windows-centric tools (Azure Storage Explorer, PowerShell) are listed before cross-platform or Linux-native options, and examples for Linux-specific commands (such as setfacl, getfacl, or POSIX shell usage) are missing. The guidance for obtaining service principal object IDs uses Azure CLI, which is cross-platform, but does not mention Linux-native identity management patterns. There is no explicit example or guidance for managing ACLs using Linux tools or from a Linux shell, despite the POSIX ACL model being described. The documentation assumes familiarity with Windows tools and environments, and does not provide parity for Linux users who may want to interact with ACLs using native Linux commands or scripts.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit examples for managing ACLs using Linux shell commands and POSIX tools (e.g., setfacl, getfacl) where applicable.
  • Include guidance for Linux users on how to interact with Azure Data Lake Storage ACLs from a Linux environment, such as using Azure CLI in Bash, or scripting with curl and REST API.
  • Ensure that cross-platform tools (Azure CLI, REST API) are listed before Windows-specific tools (PowerShell, Storage Explorer) in example tables and guidance.
  • Reference Linux identity management and permission assignment patterns, especially when discussing service principals and group management.
  • Provide parity in troubleshooting and advanced features (e.g., sticky bit) by showing how to view and set these from Linux environments.
