Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by exclusively providing PowerShell examples and referencing Windows-centric tools (such as the Microsoft Graph PowerShell module) for configuring password expiry. There are no equivalent Linux shell (bash, curl, etc.) examples or instructions, and the PowerShell approach is presented as the default method for scripting these operations. The Azure portal steps are platform-agnostic, but all command-line automation is Windows-oriented.
Recommendations
- Provide equivalent examples using bash and curl for Microsoft Graph API operations, especially for PATCH requests to update user attributes.
- Include instructions for installing and using cross-platform tools (such as Azure CLI or direct REST API calls) for Linux/macOS users.
- When presenting PowerShell examples, also offer Linux/macOS alternatives side-by-side, or clearly indicate platform-specific sections.
- Reference cross-platform scripting options before or alongside Windows/PowerShell tools, rather than defaulting to Windows-first.
- Explicitly state platform compatibility for each tool or command, and link to relevant installation guides for non-Windows environments.
