Summary
The documentation page demonstrates Windows bias primarily through its exclusive reference to the Windows PowerShell cmdlet (Get-AzAccessToken) for obtaining a Bearer access token, without mentioning Linux or cross-platform alternatives. There are no CLI or Bash examples, and the only tool referenced for authentication is a Windows-centric PowerShell module. This may hinder Linux users or those using non-Windows environments from easily following the instructions.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent Azure CLI (az account get-access-token) instructions for obtaining a Bearer access token, which works on Windows, Linux, and macOS.
  • Include Bash/cURL examples for making REST API requests, not just REST request syntax.
  • Avoid referencing only PowerShell modules; when mentioning tools, list cross-platform options first or alongside Windows-specific tools.
  • Explicitly state that the instructions apply to all platforms, and provide links to relevant Linux/macOS guidance where appropriate.
