Summary
The documentation provides a detailed PowerShell sample for calling the upload API, relying on the MSAL.PS module and Windows certificate store paths. There are no equivalent examples or guidance for Linux or cross-platform command-line tools (such as curl, Python, or bash), nor is there mention of Linux-specific authentication or certificate handling. This creates a bias toward Windows environments and PowerShell users, potentially excluding Linux users or those using other scripting languages.
Recommendations
  • Add equivalent sample code for Linux environments, such as using curl, Python (requests + MSAL), or bash scripts to acquire tokens and call the API.
  • Provide guidance on certificate handling for Linux (e.g., using PEM files, OpenSSL, or environment variables) instead of only referencing the Windows certificate store.
  • Mention cross-platform tools (curl, Python, etc.) alongside PowerShell, and clarify that the API can be called from any OS.
  • Ensure that authentication steps and token acquisition are described in a platform-neutral way, or provide both Windows and Linux instructions.
  • Consider including troubleshooting tips for common Linux-specific issues (e.g., certificate formats, file permissions).
