Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by referencing PowerShell cmdlets as the primary automation interface, mentioning Azure Resource Manager and PowerShell together, and omitting any explicit mention of Linux tools, Bash, or cross-platform scripting examples. There are no Linux-specific authentication workflows, nor are there examples or guidance for Linux users. The documentation assumes a Windows-centric approach to automation, both in terminology and in the tools referenced.
Recommendations
- Include examples of authenticating and automating tasks using Bash, Azure CLI, or Python scripts, not just PowerShell.
- Explicitly mention that Azure Automation supports both Windows and Linux Hybrid Runbook Workers, and provide parity in examples.
- Add sections or notes describing how Linux users can authenticate and interact with Azure Automation, including any differences in setup or permissions.
- Reference cross-platform tools (e.g., Azure CLI) alongside PowerShell, and avoid presenting Windows tools or patterns first or exclusively.
- Provide links to Linux-specific or cross-platform documentation where appropriate.
