Summary:
The documentation page shows a Windows bias primarily by referencing Windows agents and tools first (or exclusively) in several connector descriptions, especially for Microsoft Exchange and Security Events. Windows-specific terminology (e.g., 'Windows agent', 'Windows machines') is used without equivalent Linux context in multiple places. In contrast, Linux (Syslog) is mentioned only once, and there are no Linux-specific setup or troubleshooting examples for connectors that could apply to both platforms. There is also a lack of parity in prerequisites and instructions for Linux environments.
Recommendations:
- For connectors that mention 'Windows agent' or 'Windows machines', add equivalent references and instructions for Linux agents/machines where applicable.
- Provide Linux-specific setup, configuration, and troubleshooting examples alongside Windows examples for all relevant connectors.
- Where prerequisites or permissions are listed for Windows (e.g., PowerShell, Windows agent), include corresponding Linux commands, tools, or agent instructions.
- Avoid using Windows-centric language (e.g., 'Windows agent') as the default; instead, use cross-platform terms or explicitly mention both Windows and Linux.
- Ensure that all connectors which can be used on Linux have clear documentation for Linux environments, including links to Linux agent installation and configuration guides.
