Summary
The documentation page exhibits a Windows bias by referencing PowerShell cmdlets as the primary automation method and omitting Linux-specific tools or examples. There is no mention of Bash, shell scripts, or Linux authentication patterns, nor are there examples or guidance for Linux users. The documentation implicitly assumes a Windows-centric environment, particularly in the context of Azure Automation and Hybrid Runbook Worker usage.
Recommendations
- Include examples using Bash or shell scripts alongside PowerShell examples for runbook authentication and automation tasks.
- Explicitly mention Linux support for Hybrid Runbook Workers and provide guidance for configuring authentication on Linux-based workers.
- Reference Linux-native tools (e.g., Azure CLI, OpenSSH) in addition to Windows tools like PowerShell.
- Add a section or callouts for cross-platform considerations, highlighting any differences or additional steps required for Linux environments.
- Ensure parity in documentation by providing step-by-step instructions for both Windows and Linux users when creating and authenticating Automation accounts.
