Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by prioritizing Azure PowerShell (a Windows-centric tool) for enabling debug logging, explicitly stating that debug logging cannot be enabled via Azure CLI (the cross-platform tool). All example commands for enabling debug logging use PowerShell, with no Linux-native or Bash alternatives. The documentation refers to PowerShell cmdlets first and in more detail, while Azure CLI is only mentioned as a way to retrieve debug information, not to enable it. There are no examples or guidance for Linux users to achieve parity, and the documentation does not mention platform-specific limitations or workarounds for non-Windows environments.
Recommendations
- Provide clear guidance and examples for enabling debug logging using Azure CLI or other cross-platform tools, if possible.
- If debug logging truly cannot be enabled via Azure CLI, explicitly state this as a platform limitation and suggest alternative troubleshooting approaches for Linux/macOS users.
- Include Bash or shell script examples where possible, or clarify which steps are Windows-specific and which are cross-platform.
- Consider advocating for feature parity in Azure CLI to allow enabling debug logging, or link to feature requests/community discussions.
- Add a table or section summarizing platform/tool support for each operation (enable debug logging, retrieve logs, remove history) to help users quickly identify what is possible on their OS.
