Summary
The documentation page demonstrates Windows bias by referencing Azure PowerShell as the primary command-line tool for assigning service principal permissions, without mentioning cross-platform alternatives such as Azure CLI. The instructions and links focus on portal and PowerShell methods, which are most familiar to Windows users, and do not provide Linux-specific or platform-neutral examples for automating permission assignment.
Recommendations
  • Include Azure CLI examples alongside or before Azure PowerShell instructions, as Azure CLI is cross-platform and widely used on Linux.
  • Explicitly mention that both Azure PowerShell and Azure CLI can be used for role assignments, and provide links to relevant CLI documentation.
  • Add examples or instructions for automating permissions assignment using REST API calls, which are platform-agnostic.
  • Review linked articles to ensure Linux parity in examples and tool recommendations.
  • Clarify that the Azure portal is accessible from any OS, but provide command-line alternatives for users who prefer automation or non-GUI workflows.
