Summary
The documentation page exclusively uses PowerShell for all examples, setup, and automation steps, with no mention of Bash, CLI, or Python alternatives. All code snippets, module requirements, and instructions are tailored for PowerShell and the Azure Az PowerShell module, which are more commonly associated with Windows environments. There are no Linux shell (Bash) or cross-platform scripting examples, and the documentation does not address how to perform these tasks using the Azure CLI or other non-Windows tools. The structure and language assume familiarity with Windows/PowerShell paradigms, contributing to a strong Windows bias.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent examples using Azure CLI (az commands) and Bash scripts for all major steps, including Key Vault creation, secret management, and role assignments.
  • Include a section or parallel instructions for creating and running runbooks using Python, which is supported in Azure Automation and is cross-platform.
  • Mention that Azure Automation supports both PowerShell and Python runbooks, and show how to select the runbook type accordingly.
  • Reference Linux/macOS environments explicitly, including any prerequisites or differences in module installation or authentication.
  • Where PowerShell modules are required, note any cross-platform compatibility or provide alternatives for users on Linux/macOS.
  • Ensure that tool and command references do not assume a Windows environment by default, and avoid presenting Windows-specific tools or patterns before their cross-platform equivalents.
