Summary
The documentation is heavily focused on PowerShell and Windows-centric tooling, with most examples, screenshots, and instructions using PowerShell cmdlets and patterns. There is minimal coverage of Python runbooks, and no examples or guidance for Linux/macOS users on how to interact with Azure Automation runbooks outside of PowerShell. REST API and SDK examples are platform-neutral, but all CLI examples use PowerShell, and Windows tools are referenced exclusively.
Recommendations
- Add equivalent examples using Azure CLI (az) commands, which are cross-platform and commonly used on Linux/macOS.
- Provide Python runbook parameter examples with more detail, including how to pass arguments from non-Windows environments.
- Include instructions or examples for starting runbooks from Linux/macOS terminals, such as using Bash scripts or Azure CLI.
- Clarify that PowerShell examples can be run using PowerShell Core (pwsh) on Linux/macOS, and note any differences.
- Where screenshots show Windows-only tools, add notes or alternative visuals for Linux/macOS users.
