Summary
The documentation page for managing runbooks in Azure Automation exhibits a strong Windows bias. All code examples use PowerShell, with Windows-style file paths and cmdlets, and there is no mention of Bash, CLI, or Linux/macOS-specific workflows. Windows tools and patterns (such as PowerShell scripts and Windows file paths) are referenced exclusively, and Linux alternatives are absent. The documentation assumes familiarity with PowerShell and Windows environments, creating friction for users on Linux or macOS.
Recommendations
- Provide equivalent examples using Azure CLI and Bash for common tasks (creating, importing, publishing, and retrieving runbook/job status).
- Include Linux/macOS file path examples alongside Windows paths.
- Mention cross-platform tools and clarify which steps are OS-agnostic.
- Add notes or sections on how Linux/macOS users can perform these tasks, especially for scripting and automation.
- Reference Python runbooks and their management more prominently, with examples.
- Clarify any platform-specific limitations or requirements for Hybrid Runbook Worker and other features.
