windows_tools
Summary:
The documentation provides examples for importing OpenAPI specifications using the Azure portal, Azure CLI, and Azure PowerShell. While Azure CLI is cross-platform, the inclusion of Azure PowerShell (which is traditionally Windows-centric, though now cross-platform) and the explicit PowerShell example may indicate a Windows bias. The order of presentation (Portal, CLI, then PowerShell) is acceptable, but the documentation does not provide any Linux- or bash-specific guidance, troubleshooting, or examples beyond the CLI, nor does it mention Linux-specific considerations or tools. There are no missing Linux examples per se, but the presence of PowerShell-specific instructions and the lack of any Linux shell or scripting context may make the documentation feel more Windows-oriented.
Recommendations:
- Explicitly state that Azure CLI commands are cross-platform and provide any Linux/macOS-specific notes if relevant (e.g., environment variable syntax differences).
- Consider adding bash or shell script examples for Linux users, especially for scripting scenarios.
- If PowerShell is included, clarify that PowerShell Core is available cross-platform, or provide equivalent bash examples where possible.
- Mention any Linux-specific prerequisites or troubleshooting steps, if applicable.
- Ensure parity in troubleshooting and advanced usage sections for both Windows and Linux users.

Flagged Code Snippets
After importing the API, if needed, you can update the settings by using the [az apim api update](/cli/azure/apim/api#az-apim-api-update) command.
#### [PowerShell](#tab/powershell)
The following example uses the [Import-AzApiManagementApi](/powershell/module/az.apimanagement/import-azapimanagementapi?) Azure PowerShell cmdlet to import an OpenAPI specification from the specified URL to an API Management instance named *apim-hello-world*. To import using a path to a specification instead of a URL, use the `-SpecificationPath` parameter.
