Summary:
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by providing only PowerShell code examples for interacting with Storage Analytics logs, referencing Windows-specific tools (such as Microsoft Azure Storage Explorer with 'win32' and 'Windows_NT' user agents in log samples), and omitting equivalent Linux/Unix shell or CLI examples. Additionally, PowerShell is mentioned before Azure CLI when describing how to enable logging, and there is no demonstration of using Linux-native tools or cross-platform scripting.
Recommendations:
- Provide equivalent Azure CLI examples (with Bash syntax) alongside or before PowerShell snippets for all operations, especially for listing and filtering blobs.
- Include sample log entries generated from Linux or macOS clients (e.g., with user agents showing 'linux' or 'darwin'), or clarify that the logs are platform-agnostic.
- Reference cross-platform tools (such as AzCopy, Azure CLI, or REST API) equally or before Windows-specific tools.
- Explicitly state that all operations can be performed from Linux, macOS, or Windows, and provide links or examples for each.
- Where PowerShell is used, add a corresponding Bash or shell script example to ensure Linux users are not excluded.
