Summary
The documentation page demonstrates Windows bias primarily in its guidance for obtaining a Bearer access token for the REST API. It references only the Windows PowerShell cmdlet Get-AzAccessToken, without mentioning Linux/macOS alternatives (such as Azure CLI or cross-platform authentication methods). No Linux-specific examples or parity are provided for this critical step. The rest of the documentation is platform-neutral, but the lack of Linux/macOS instructions for authentication creates friction for non-Windows users.
Recommendations
- Add instructions for obtaining a Bearer access token using Azure CLI (az account get-access-token), which works on Linux, macOS, and Windows.
- Include cross-platform examples for authentication, such as using curl with Azure CLI or environment variables.
- Explicitly mention that PowerShell is available on Linux/macOS, but also provide Azure CLI examples as the default cross-platform method.
- Where possible, order examples so that cross-platform methods (Azure CLI) are shown before or alongside Windows-specific tools.
