Summary
The documentation provides both Azure CLI and PowerShell examples for configuring diagnostic settings, but PowerShell is given equal prominence despite being Windows-centric. The instructions for creating a Log Analytics workspace and setting up alerts are exclusively portal-based, which is platform-neutral but may be more familiar to Windows users. There are no explicit Linux/macOS shell examples (e.g., Bash), nor are there instructions for using tools like Cloud Shell or direct REST calls from Linux environments. The CLI example is cross-platform, but PowerShell is Windows-first and no Linux-specific guidance is offered.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit Bash shell examples for Linux/macOS users, especially for REST API calls using curl.
  • Clarify that Azure CLI works on Linux/macOS and provide installation or usage notes for those platforms.
  • Consider mentioning Azure Cloud Shell as a cross-platform option.
  • If PowerShell is shown, note that PowerShell Core is available on Linux/macOS and provide usage instructions.
  • Ensure that examples and instructions do not assume a Windows environment; add parity for Linux/macOS where possible.
