Summary
The documentation generally presents platform-neutral guidance, but in the 'Server level (Windows apps only)' section, it exclusively describes IIS and web.config-based authorization for Windows apps, with no Linux equivalent or alternative provided. The use of Kudu (primarily a Windows tool) is described in detail, and the Windows approach is presented before mentioning that Linux apps cannot use this method. No Linux-specific authorization example or workaround is offered.
Recommendations
  • Add a Linux-specific section describing how to implement server-level authorization for Linux-based App Service apps, such as using middleware in popular frameworks (Node.js, Python, .NET Core, etc.) or configuring access via NGINX/Apache if applicable.
  • Provide parity by including examples for both Windows and Linux platforms where platform-specific configuration is required.
  • Explicitly link to or describe alternative approaches for Linux users when a Windows-only method is presented.
  • Avoid presenting Windows-only solutions first or exclusively in critical sections; ensure Linux/macOS users have clear guidance.
