Summary
The documentation provides examples for Azure Portal, Azure CLI, and PowerShell. PowerShell is featured as a primary automation method, and several examples (e.g., uploading files) reference Windows-specific file paths (e.g., D:\testFiles\textfile.csv). PowerShell is traditionally associated with Windows, and its usage may imply a Windows-centric workflow. The CLI examples are cross-platform, but PowerShell is given equal prominence, and Windows file path conventions are used in examples before mentioning alternatives. There is no explicit mention of Linux/macOS-specific considerations, nor are Bash or shell script examples provided.
Recommendations
  • Add Bash/shell script examples for key tasks alongside PowerShell, especially for file uploads and resource management.
  • Use platform-neutral file paths in examples (e.g., /home/user/testFiles/textfile.csv) or provide both Windows and Linux/macOS variants.
  • Explicitly state that Azure CLI works on Linux/macOS and provide guidance for Linux/macOS users where workflows may differ.
  • Where PowerShell is referenced, clarify that PowerShell Core is available cross-platform, and provide installation instructions for Linux/macOS.
  • Add troubleshooting notes for common Linux/macOS issues (e.g., file permissions, path separators) when working with Azure Data Share.
