Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a notable Windows bias by exclusively providing PowerShell-based examples and instructions for starting runbooks, with no mention of Linux/macOS alternatives such as Azure CLI, Bash, or cross-platform scripting. Windows tools and terminology (PowerShell cmdlets, hashtables, PSCredential) are used throughout, and Windows methods are presented before platform-neutral or API-based approaches. Linux/macOS users are left without direct guidance for their environments.
Recommendations
- Add Azure CLI examples for starting runbooks, including parameter passing and job tracking.
- Include Bash or shell script samples for interacting with the Azure Automation API.
- Explicitly mention cross-platform options and clarify which methods work on Linux/macOS.
- Reorder sections to present platform-neutral methods (API, portal, CLI) before Windows-specific tools.
- Provide links to Linux/macOS-specific documentation or troubleshooting guides.
