Summary
The documentation page focuses exclusively on using the Azure portal UI to create an Automation account, with no mention of Linux-specific tools, CLI commands, or cross-platform alternatives. The only 'Next steps' link is to a PowerShell runbook tutorial, which is Windows-centric. There are no examples or references to Bash, Azure CLI, or Linux automation patterns, and the documentation implicitly assumes a Windows/PowerShell workflow for further automation.
Recommendations
- Include links to tutorials for creating Automation accounts using Azure CLI and Bash scripts, which are cross-platform and commonly used on Linux.
- Add 'Next steps' options for creating runbooks using Python or Bash, not just PowerShell.
- Mention that Automation accounts and managed identities can be managed via REST API, Azure CLI, or ARM templates, with examples.
- Ensure screenshots and instructions do not assume a Windows environment; clarify that the Azure portal is browser-based and OS-agnostic.
- Provide parity in documentation for Linux users by referencing Linux-friendly automation tools and workflows.
