Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. Azure PowerShell is consistently presented as the primary automation example, often before Azure CLI. Several advanced operations (e.g., record set-level resource locks) are only documented with PowerShell, with explicit notes that Azure CLI or portal do not support these actions. There are no Linux-specific command-line examples, nor any mention of Linux tools or shell patterns (e.g., bash, scripting, environment variables). The documentation assumes familiarity with PowerShell syntax and workflows, which are most common on Windows systems.
Recommendations
  • Ensure all automation examples are provided for both Azure PowerShell and Azure CLI, with equal prominence and ordering.
  • Where PowerShell is the only supported method, clarify whether this is due to Azure platform limitations or documentation gaps, and provide guidance for Linux users (e.g., running PowerShell Core on Linux, or alternative approaches).
  • Include Linux shell (bash/zsh) usage notes, such as environment variable handling, file paths, and scripting patterns.
  • Add explicit statements about cross-platform compatibility for Azure CLI and PowerShell, including installation links for Linux and macOS.
  • If certain features are unavailable in CLI or portal, suggest workarounds or provide links to feature requests/community discussions for parity.
