Summary
The documentation page is heavily focused on PowerShell and Windows-centric tools and patterns. Most examples, code snippets, and workflows use PowerShell, PowerShell Workflow, or graphical runbooks (which are PowerShell-based). The process of passing parameters, especially with JSON objects, is demonstrated exclusively with PowerShell and Windows-oriented cmdlets. There is minimal coverage of Python runbooks, and no examples or guidance for Linux/macOS users on how to interact with Azure Automation runbooks using native Linux tools or shell scripts. The SDK and REST API sections are platform-neutral, but the practical examples and step-by-step instructions are Windows/PowerShell-centric.
Recommendations
- Add equivalent examples for starting and passing parameters to runbooks using Bash, Azure CLI, or other Linux-native tools.
- Provide Python runbook parameter examples that show how to invoke them from Linux/macOS environments, including sample Bash scripts.
- Clarify which steps are platform-agnostic (e.g., REST API, SDK) and provide explicit Linux/macOS usage instructions where possible.
- Include notes or sections on how Linux/macOS users can install and use Azure CLI to interact with Azure Automation.
- Balance the order of examples so that PowerShell and Linux-native approaches are presented with equal prominence.
