Summary
The documentation page heavily focuses on PowerShell and Windows-centric tools and patterns, with most examples, screenshots, and workflows centered around PowerShell, PowerShell Workflow, and graphical runbooks (which are PowerShell-based). Windows/PowerShell terminology and tools are used throughout, and PowerShell examples are presented before Python. There is minimal coverage of Python runbooks, and no mention of Bash, Linux shell, or cross-platform CLI usage. Assigning parameters and calling runbooks is almost exclusively demonstrated with PowerShell cmdlets and Windows-centric workflows.
Recommendations
- Add examples for starting runbooks and passing parameters using Azure CLI (az), which is cross-platform and widely used on Linux/macOS.
- Provide Python runbook parameter usage examples beyond referencing another tutorial, including how to pass parameters from CLI or REST API.
- Include guidance for Linux/macOS users, such as how to use Bash or shell scripts to invoke runbooks via REST API or Azure CLI.
- Clarify which features are PowerShell/Windows-specific and which are cross-platform, to help non-Windows users navigate the documentation.
- Present Python and cross-platform examples alongside PowerShell, not only after or as an afterthought.
