Summary
The documentation provides detailed instructions for using the Azure Portal and Azure PowerShell to add user assigned identities to virtual machines, but does not offer equivalent examples for Linux users, such as Azure CLI or Bash scripts. PowerShell is emphasized as the primary automation tool, which is typically associated with Windows environments. No mention is made of cross-platform alternatives or Linux-native tooling.
Recommendations
- Add equivalent Azure CLI examples for all PowerShell commands, showing how to author, assign, and remediate policy definitions using az policy commands.
- Include Bash script snippets for Linux users where appropriate.
- Explicitly state that both PowerShell and Azure CLI can be used on Windows, macOS, and Linux, and provide links to installation guides for both tools.
- Where possible, present Azure CLI examples before or alongside PowerShell examples to avoid Windows-first bias.
- Review and update the 'Prerequisites' and 'Next steps' sections to reference cross-platform tooling and documentation.
