Summary
The documentation exclusively uses PowerShell for scripting and automation, with no mention of Bash, Python, or other cross-platform alternatives. All examples and instructions are tailored to Windows-centric tools and workflows (PowerShell, Azure Automation Run As Accounts, PowerShell jobs), with no Linux-specific guidance or parity. The page assumes familiarity with Windows patterns and does not provide equivalent steps for Linux users or those using non-Windows environments.
Recommendations
- Provide equivalent Bash or Python script examples for Linux users, using Azure CLI or REST API calls.
- Include instructions for creating and running automation scripts on Linux-based Azure Automation accounts or using hybrid workers.
- Mention cross-platform tools (e.g., Azure CLI, Python SDK) alongside PowerShell, and offer guidance for both Windows and Linux environments.
- Reorder examples or add parallel sections so that Linux options are presented alongside or before Windows-specific instructions.
- Clarify which steps are platform-agnostic and which require adaptation for Linux, and link to relevant Linux documentation.
