Bias Analysis
Bias Types:

windows_tools
Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a mild Windows bias. Windows authentication is listed as a primary authentication method alongside Basic and Anonymous, and the Windows authentication example is provided before service principal or API key examples. The documentation also references Windows-specific patterns (e.g., domain\user format for usernames). However, there are no explicit PowerShell examples or exclusive reliance on Windows-only tools, and the overall content is mostly platform-neutral JSON configuration. Linux authentication methods and patterns are not mentioned, and there is no discussion of Linux-specific considerations or parity.
Recommendations:
- Explicitly mention Linux compatibility for all authentication types, especially for Basic and Anonymous authentication.
- Clarify whether Windows authentication is supported from non-Windows (Linux) self-hosted integration runtimes, and provide guidance or alternatives if not.
- Add examples or notes for configuring OData linked services from Linux-based integration runtimes, including any differences in username formats or authentication support.
- Balance the order of authentication examples so that Windows authentication is not always listed before Linux-compatible options.
- If certain authentication types (e.g., Windows authentication) are only supported on Windows, clearly state this and suggest alternatives for Linux users.
