Summary
The documentation page is heavily biased toward Windows environments, specifically PowerShell. All code samples, migration steps, and graphical runbook instructions use PowerShell cmdlets and concepts (e.g., Connect-AzAccount, Get-AutomationConnection), which are native to Windows. There are no examples or guidance for Linux-based automation, Bash, Python, or CLI usage. The documentation assumes the use of Windows tooling and patterns, and does not mention or prioritize Linux equivalents.
Recommendations
  • Add equivalent examples using Azure CLI (az) and REST API for authentication and resource management, which are cross-platform and commonly used on Linux.
  • Provide sample scripts in Bash and Python for managed identity authentication and resource access.
  • Include instructions for migrating runbooks written in Python or Bash, not just PowerShell.
  • Clarify which steps or features are platform-agnostic and which are specific to Windows/PowerShell.
  • Mention and link to documentation for using managed identities in Linux-based hybrid runbook workers.
  • Ensure that graphical runbook instructions note platform limitations and alternatives for Linux users.
