Summary
The documentation for creating and publishing playbooks for Microsoft Sentinel solutions demonstrates a notable Windows bias. The only provided automation tooling example for exporting/sanitizing ARM templates is a PowerShell script, with instructions focused on running it in Windows PowerShell, PowerShell Core, or Visual Studio Code. There are no equivalent examples or guidance for Linux/macOS users (e.g., Bash, Azure CLI, or cross-platform alternatives), and the script execution instructions (Set-ExecutionPolicy) are specific to Windows environments. This creates friction for users on non-Windows platforms.
Recommendations
- Provide explicit instructions for running the PowerShell script on Linux/macOS using PowerShell Core, including prerequisites and any platform-specific considerations.
- Offer alternative methods for exporting/sanitizing ARM templates, such as using Azure CLI, Bash scripts, or REST API calls, with examples for Linux/macOS.
- Clarify whether the PowerShell script is cross-platform and, if so, provide usage notes for non-Windows environments.
- Reorder or balance examples so that Linux/macOS usage is not always secondary to Windows.
- Include troubleshooting tips for common issues encountered on Linux/macOS (e.g., permissions, module installation).
