Bias Analysis

Summary:
The documentation references the XrmToolBox, a Windows-only tool, as a troubleshooting step in multiple places. There are no Linux or cross-platform alternatives mentioned, nor are there command-line or PowerShell examples, but the exclusive mention of a Windows GUI tool introduces a Windows bias. No Linux-specific guidance or parity is provided.
Recommendations:
- Where XrmToolBox is recommended, also mention cross-platform alternatives or clarify if none exist.
- If possible, provide equivalent troubleshooting steps using REST APIs, CLI tools, or scripts that are platform-agnostic.
- Explicitly state the platform requirements for XrmToolBox and suggest workarounds for Linux/macOS users, such as using Wine, or recommend alternative approaches.
- Consider including examples or links for troubleshooting Dynamics 365 connectivity and data issues using PowerShell (cross-platform), Azure CLI, or REST API calls.
- Audit the documentation for other implicit Windows dependencies and add Linux/macOS guidance where feasible.
