Summary
The documentation page provides REST API examples exclusively using PowerShell scripts, which are native to Windows and not available by default on Linux/macOS. There are no equivalent Linux/macOS shell (e.g., Bash, curl) examples for REST API usage. Additionally, PowerShell is given its own dedicated section, and Windows-centric tools (PowerShell cmdlets) are referenced throughout. This creates friction for Linux/macOS users who cannot easily follow the REST API or PowerShell instructions.
Recommendations
  • Add REST API examples using Bash and curl, demonstrating how to authenticate and query pipeline runs from Linux/macOS.
  • Include notes or links for cross-platform alternatives to PowerShell scripts, such as Azure CLI or Python scripts.
  • Ensure that REST API sections provide both PowerShell and Bash/curl examples, or at least mention how Linux/macOS users can perform equivalent operations.
  • Consider reordering or grouping examples so that Windows and Linux/macOS approaches are presented with equal prominence.
