Bias Analysis

Summary
The documentation page exhibits Windows bias primarily in its guidance for testing HTTP requests, where it recommends Windows-centric tools such as Visual Studio and PowerShell's Invoke-RestMethod, without mentioning Linux alternatives. Additionally, instructions for certificate management are written exclusively for Windows (MMC, cert store), with no mention of Linux or cross-platform approaches. The authentication examples and general workflow do not provide parity for Linux users, and Windows authentication is listed as a supported type before others.
Recommendations
  • Include Linux-friendly tools for testing HTTP requests, such as curl, wget, or httpie, alongside PowerShell and Visual Studio.
  • Add instructions for certificate management on Linux systems, such as using OpenSSL and managing certificates in common Linux locations.
  • Mention Linux authentication mechanisms and clarify how Windows authentication type behaves on non-Windows self-hosted integration runtimes.
  • Ensure examples and tool recommendations are presented in a cross-platform manner, or at least provide Linux equivalents in parallel.
  • Explicitly state any platform limitations or differences in supported features (e.g., Windows authentication only available on Windows hosts).
