Summary
The documentation uses AzureCliCredential from the azure.identity Python library, which relies on the Azure CLI being authenticated. While Azure CLI is cross-platform, the documentation does not mention Linux or macOS compatibility, nor does it provide any guidance for Linux users. There are no explicit PowerShell or Windows-only commands, but the lack of Linux-specific notes or alternative authentication methods (such as environment variables or managed identity) may leave Linux users uncertain. The documentation implicitly assumes the user is familiar with Windows-centric tooling.
Recommendations
  • Explicitly mention that Azure CLI and the example code are cross-platform and work on Linux, macOS, and Windows.
  • Provide a note or section for Linux/macOS users, including any prerequisites or differences in Azure CLI installation or authentication.
  • Offer alternative authentication methods (e.g., DefaultAzureCredential, environment variables, managed identity) that may be more common in Linux environments.
  • Include troubleshooting tips for common issues encountered on Linux (e.g., Azure CLI not found, authentication issues).
