Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by providing only PowerShell examples for searching the audit log, referencing Windows-centric tools and patterns (such as Excel export and PowerShell cmdlets), and omitting equivalent Linux or cross-platform command-line instructions. There are no examples using bash, curl, Python, or other cross-platform tools to access the audit log or Office 365 Management API. The workflow assumes a Windows/PowerShell environment, which may exclude Linux and macOS users.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent examples using bash, curl, or Python scripts to query the Office 365 Management API for audit log events, ensuring Linux and macOS users can follow along.
  • Mention and demonstrate cross-platform tools (such as Microsoft Graph API with curl or Python) for accessing audit logs.
  • Include instructions for exporting and analyzing results in open formats (e.g., CSV) and using open-source tools (e.g., LibreOffice Calc, pandas) instead of only referencing Excel.
  • Where PowerShell is referenced, clarify if PowerShell Core (cross-platform) is supported, and if so, provide installation and usage notes for Linux/macOS.
  • Reorder or parallelize instructions so that Windows and Linux/macOS approaches are presented together, rather than Windows-first.
