Summary
The documentation page provides both Windows and Linux instructions for using managed identities with Azure Files SMB shares. However, there is a notable Windows bias: PowerShell is used exclusively for all setup and configuration examples, and Windows-specific tools and modules (e.g., AzFilesSmbMIClient, PowerShell modules) are described in detail before Linux equivalents. Windows instructions and examples are generally presented first in each section, and troubleshooting and developer integration guidance is more detailed for Windows (e.g., NuGet, native DLL integration) than for Linux.
Recommendations
  • Provide Azure CLI or Bash examples for storage account and file share setup, in addition to PowerShell, to improve parity for Linux/macOS users.
  • Present Windows and Linux instructions side-by-side or in a more balanced order, rather than consistently listing Windows first.
  • Expand Linux developer integration guidance to match the detail provided for Windows (e.g., more code samples, troubleshooting tips).
  • Where possible, mention cross-platform tools or alternatives to PowerShell for users on Linux/macOS.
  • Clarify when certain steps (e.g., PowerShell commands) are Windows-only and offer Linux/macOS alternatives.
