Summary:
The documentation references XrmToolBox, a Windows-only tool, as a recommended troubleshooting utility for Dynamics 365 connectors. There are no equivalent Linux or cross-platform tools mentioned, nor are there any command-line or scripting examples (e.g., PowerShell, Bash) for either platform. This creates a bias toward Windows environments and leaves Linux users without clear guidance or alternatives.
Recommendations:
- Identify and recommend cross-platform or Linux-compatible tools for troubleshooting Dynamics 365 connectors, such as using REST APIs, Postman, or open-source alternatives.
- If XrmToolBox is essential, clarify its Windows-only nature and suggest how Linux/Mac users might access similar functionality (e.g., via Wine, virtual machines, or alternative tools).
- Provide troubleshooting examples or scripts using cross-platform tools (e.g., curl, Python, or .NET Core CLI) where possible.
- Explicitly state platform requirements for any recommended tools and offer parity in guidance for Linux users.
