Bias Analysis

Detected Bias Types

Summary
The documentation is largely platform-neutral, focusing on REST API calls and JSON request/response bodies. However, there is a subtle Windows bias in metadata and examples: VM sizes and OS types in sample responses are consistently Windows-centric (e.g., "osType": "Windows"), and there are no explicit Linux/macOS examples or references. No PowerShell, CLI, or Windows-specific tooling is mentioned, but the examples and metadata may suggest Windows as the default or primary use case.
Recommendations
  • Include sample responses and request bodies featuring Linux VMs (e.g., set "osType": "Linux" in example responses).
  • Add a note clarifying that the REST API works equally for Windows and Linux VMs, and highlight any differences if they exist.
  • Where VM configuration or metadata is shown, alternate between Windows and Linux examples, or show both.
  • If there are platform-specific considerations (e.g., disk formats, encryption), document them explicitly for both Windows and Linux.
