Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a bias toward Windows by referencing the PowerShell Get-AzAccessToken cmdlet as the only example for obtaining an Azure access token, without mentioning or providing equivalent Linux or cross-platform alternatives. There are no Linux-specific tools or commands referenced for authentication, and the only tool-specific guidance is Windows-centric.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent examples for obtaining an Azure access token using cross-platform tools such as Azure CLI (az account get-access-token) and document how to use them in the context of the API request.
  • Explicitly mention that curl and the HTTP API are cross-platform, and provide authentication examples for both Windows and Linux environments.
  • Include references or links to Linux/macOS authentication workflows, such as using environment variables or OpenID Connect tokens.
  • Avoid referencing only PowerShell cmdlets when cross-platform alternatives exist, or at minimum, present them alongside each other.
