Summary
The documentation page for managing credentials in Azure Automation is heavily focused on PowerShell, specifically Windows PowerShell and Az modules. All command-line examples are given in PowerShell, with no mention of Bash, CLI, or Linux-native tools. The process for creating credentials outside the portal is described only with Windows PowerShell, and PowerShell cmdlets are listed first and in detail. Python is supported and documented, but only as an alternative for runbooks, not for asset management or administrative tasks. There are no Linux/macOS shell examples or references to cross-platform CLI usage.
Recommendations
- Add Azure CLI examples for credential management, if supported.
- Clarify whether PowerShell Core (cross-platform) is supported and provide examples if so.
- Explicitly state platform requirements for PowerShell cmdlets (Windows-only or cross-platform).
- If credential management is possible via REST API or SDKs, provide links or examples.
- Consider reordering sections so that platform-neutral or cross-platform methods are presented before Windows-specific ones.
