Summary
The documentation provides detailed PowerShell-based instructions for disabling a system-assigned managed identity, including use of Windows-specific cmdlets and authentication patterns. There are no equivalent examples for Linux/macOS users (e.g., using Bash, curl, or Azure CLI), and the only programmatic example is Windows-centric. This creates friction for non-Windows users attempting to automate or script the process.
Recommendations
- Add Linux/macOS-friendly examples using Bash and curl for the REST API PATCH request.
- Include Azure CLI commands for authentication and REST API invocation, which work cross-platform.
- Explicitly mention that PowerShell Core is available on Linux/macOS if PowerShell must be used, and provide compatible examples.
- Present cross-platform examples before or alongside Windows-specific instructions.
