Summary
The documentation provides a detailed PowerShell script for accessing audit logs via the Microsoft Entra reporting API, but does not offer equivalent examples for Linux/macOS users (e.g., Bash, curl, Python). The only automation script shown is PowerShell-centric, which is native to Windows and Azure Cloud Shell, creating friction for users on other platforms. No Linux-first or cross-platform CLI examples are provided.
Recommendations
- Add equivalent examples using Bash/curl and/or Python to demonstrate how Linux/macOS users can access the API and download audit logs.
- Explicitly mention that PowerShell Core is available on Linux/macOS and provide installation instructions or links.
- Clarify that Azure Cloud Shell supports Bash as well as PowerShell, and provide Bash script examples.
- Include notes or links to cross-platform tools (e.g., Azure CLI, Microsoft Graph SDKs for Python/Node.js) for audit log retrieval.
