Summary
The documentation provides both Windows (PowerShell) and Linux (Bash) examples for acquiring access tokens with managed identity on Azure Arc-enabled servers. However, the Windows/PowerShell example is presented first, and the PowerShell script is more detailed, including error handling and output formatting. The Linux/Bash example is given after, with less explanation and detail. The 'Related content' section mentions PowerShell before Azure CLI, which may reinforce Windows-first patterns.
Recommendations
- Present Windows and Linux examples side-by-side or alternate which comes first to avoid implicit prioritization.
- Ensure both PowerShell and Bash examples are equally detailed, including error handling and output formatting.
- In 'Related content', list Azure CLI before or alongside PowerShell to improve parity.
- Add clarifying notes that both Windows and Linux are fully supported and that users should select the example appropriate for their environment.
