Summary
The documentation provides both Azure CLI and Azure PowerShell examples for importing a SOAP API, but the PowerShell example is given equal prominence and detail as the CLI example. The prerequisites section lists Azure PowerShell as a required tool alongside Azure CLI, which may imply parity, but PowerShell is a Windows-centric tool (despite cross-platform support, most users associate it with Windows). There are no Linux-specific instructions, nor is there mention of Linux-native tools or shell scripting alternatives. The documentation does not clarify that both CLI and PowerShell are cross-platform, nor does it provide guidance for Linux users who may not use PowerShell.
Recommendations
  • Explicitly state that both Azure CLI and Azure PowerShell are available cross-platform, and clarify installation steps for Linux and macOS users.
  • Provide Linux shell (bash) examples for common tasks, or at least mention that Azure CLI commands work natively in Linux terminals.
  • Reorder examples to present Azure CLI before PowerShell, or clarify that CLI is the recommended cross-platform approach.
  • Add a note for Linux users that PowerShell Core is available for Linux, with installation instructions or links.
  • Consider including troubleshooting tips or environment setup guidance for Linux users, such as file path conventions and authentication differences.
