Summary
The documentation provides a PowerShell example for retrieving tokens from the managed identity endpoint, but does not offer equivalent Linux/macOS shell (e.g., Bash/curl) examples. This may create friction for users on non-Windows platforms. Additionally, the use of PowerShell-specific environment variable syntax and tools (Invoke-RestMethod) is Windows-centric.
Recommendations
- Add Bash/curl examples alongside PowerShell for token retrieval from the managed identity endpoint.
- Use cross-platform environment variable syntax in examples (e.g., $IDENTITY_ENDPOINT for PowerShell, $IDENTITY_ENDPOINT for Bash).
- Explicitly mention that the Azure CLI commands work on Linux/macOS as well as Windows.
- Where PowerShell is shown, provide a tab or section for Bash/curl to ensure parity.
