Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a notable Windows bias by exclusively providing PowerShell-based examples for disabling local authentication in Azure Automation. All command-line instructions use PowerShell cmdlets, with no mention of Linux/macOS alternatives (e.g., Bash, curl, or Azure CLI). The PowerShell example is presented as the primary (and only) method, which may create friction for Linux/macOS users who do not have access to PowerShell or prefer native tools.
Recommendations
- Add equivalent examples using Azure CLI and/or REST API calls with curl for Linux/macOS users.
- Explicitly mention platform-agnostic alternatives and clarify that PowerShell is not required if using REST API directly.
- Reorder or parallelize examples so that Linux/macOS methods are shown alongside or before Windows/PowerShell examples.
- Provide guidance on authentication and prerequisites for non-Windows environments.
