Summary
The documentation consistently presents Azure PowerShell examples alongside Azure CLI, but PowerShell commands are shown first in every case. Critical operations, such as record set level resource locks, are only supported and documented via Azure PowerShell, with no Linux/macOS equivalent or workaround. There is no mention of platform requirements for PowerShell, nor guidance for Linux/macOS users who cannot use PowerShell natively.
Recommendations
  • Clearly indicate platform requirements for Azure PowerShell and provide installation guidance for Linux/macOS users.
  • Where functionality is only available in Azure PowerShell, explicitly state this limitation and suggest alternatives or workarounds for Linux/macOS users (e.g., using Azure Cloud Shell, REST API, or ARM templates).
  • Present Azure CLI and PowerShell examples in parallel, alternating which is shown first, or group them together to avoid Windows-first bias.
  • If possible, expand Azure CLI support for record set level resource locks and update documentation when parity is achieved.
  • Add explicit notes or sections for Linux/macOS users, clarifying which steps require Windows or PowerShell and how to proceed on other platforms.
