Summary
The documentation provides both Azure CLI and Azure PowerShell examples for importing a SOAP API, but the PowerShell example is given equal prominence and detail as the CLI example. PowerShell is a Windows-centric tool, and its inclusion alongside CLI (which is cross-platform) can signal a Windows bias, especially since there are no Linux-specific shell examples (e.g., Bash) or explicit mention of Linux environments. The prerequisites section lists both Azure CLI and Azure PowerShell, but does not clarify that CLI is cross-platform while PowerShell is traditionally Windows-first (though now available on Linux). There is no mention of Linux-specific considerations, nor are there examples using native Linux tools or shell environments.
Recommendations
  • Clarify that Azure CLI is cross-platform and can be used on Linux, macOS, and Windows.
  • Add explicit Bash or shell examples for Linux users, demonstrating the same import process.
  • Note that PowerShell is available on Linux, but is more commonly used on Windows; provide guidance for Linux users who may prefer Bash.
  • Include a section or callout for Linux-specific setup or troubleshooting tips.
  • Ensure that examples and instructions do not assume a Windows environment (e.g., file paths, tool availability).
