Summary
The documentation exclusively uses PowerShell cmdlets (New-AzDataFactoryV2LinkedServiceEncryptedCredential, Set-AzDataFactoryV2LinkedService) and references DPAPI, a Windows-specific encryption technology. There are no examples or instructions for Linux or cross-platform alternatives, and prerequisites specifically require PowerShell 7.0+ without mentioning Linux compatibility or alternatives. The workflow and tooling described are Windows-centric, with no parity for Linux users.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent instructions and examples for Linux environments, including supported command-line tools or scripts.
  • Clarify whether the cmdlets and DPAPI-based encryption are supported on Linux, and if not, suggest alternative secure credential storage/encryption methods for Linux.
  • Explicitly mention platform requirements and limitations, and offer guidance for users running self-hosted integration runtime on Linux.
  • If PowerShell is cross-platform, demonstrate usage on Linux (e.g., with bash or Linux file paths), and note any differences in behavior or prerequisites.
