Summary
The documentation page exhibits a strong Windows/PowerShell bias. Most examples, code snippets, and workflows are centered around PowerShell and PowerShell Workflow, which are primarily Windows technologies. The use of Windows PowerShell cmdlets, references to Windows-specific tools and patterns (such as GUID creation in PowerShell), and the lack of equivalent Linux/macOS shell examples or CLI workflows make it difficult for Linux/macOS users to follow or adapt the instructions. Python runbooks are mentioned, but only briefly and without detailed examples or parity in parameter handling. There are no Bash, Azure CLI, or cross-platform SDK examples provided.
Recommendations
  • Add equivalent examples using Azure CLI and Bash for starting runbooks and passing parameters, especially for Linux/macOS users.
  • Include instructions and code snippets for creating and passing parameters to runbooks from Linux/macOS environments.
  • Provide parity in SDK examples, such as Python or JavaScript, not just C#.
  • Clarify which steps and tools are cross-platform and which are Windows-specific.
  • Expand the Python runbook section with more detailed examples, including parameter handling and invocation from Linux/macOS.
  • Mention and demonstrate how Linux/macOS users can generate GUIDs, manipulate JSON, and interact with Azure Automation without PowerShell.
