Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a subtle Windows bias. Windows authentication is listed as a primary authentication method, and the only OS-specific authentication example provided is for Windows (with domain\user syntax). There is no mention of Linux-specific authentication scenarios or examples, nor is there guidance for Linux users on how to obtain or use credentials. Additionally, the use of Windows-centric patterns (such as domain\user) and the absence of Linux command-line or tool references (e.g., curl, wget, or Linux-based token retrieval) reinforce this bias.
Recommendations
- Add explicit Linux authentication examples, such as using Kerberos or NTLM from Linux environments, or clarify cross-platform support for authentication types.
- Provide equivalent Linux command-line examples for obtaining access tokens (e.g., using curl or httpie instead of only referencing Postman).
- Clarify whether Windows authentication is supported from non-Windows integration runtimes, and if so, provide Linux-specific configuration guidance.
- When listing authentication types, avoid putting 'Windows' before more cross-platform options, or clarify their applicability to different OSes.
- Include a note or section on best practices for Linux users, especially for common scenarios like service principal authentication or API key usage.
