Bias Analysis

Summary
The documentation page exhibits Windows bias primarily in the 'TIP' section, which suggests using Visual Studio and PowerShell's Invoke-RestMethod to test HTTP requests, with no mention of equivalent Linux/macOS tools (such as curl or wget). Additionally, the instructions for managing certificate permissions are written exclusively for Windows environments, referencing Microsoft Management Console (MMC) and Windows certificate stores, without guidance for Linux/macOS certificate management. Windows authentication is listed as a supported method, but there is no discussion of Linux-specific authentication scenarios.
Recommendations
  • Include Linux/macOS equivalents (e.g., curl, wget, httpie) alongside PowerShell and Visual Studio for testing HTTP requests.
  • Add instructions for managing client certificates on Linux/macOS, such as using OpenSSL or updating certificate stores.
  • Clarify how authentication types (especially Windows authentication) behave or are supported on non-Windows self-hosted integration runtimes.
  • Present cross-platform tools and examples in parallel or in a neutral order, rather than listing Windows tools first.
