Summary
The documentation provides examples for Azure CLI and Azure PowerShell, with PowerShell (a Windows-centric tool) given equal prominence to the cross-platform Azure CLI. There are no explicit Linux shell (bash) examples, nor is there mention of Linux-specific tools or workflows. The PowerShell example uses Windows-style variable assignment and context setup, which may not be familiar or directly usable for Linux users. The documentation refers to Azure PowerShell requirements in the prerequisites, reinforcing the Windows bias.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit bash examples for Azure CLI commands, showing usage in a Linux shell environment.
  • Clarify that Azure CLI is cross-platform and can be used on Linux, macOS, and Windows.
  • De-emphasize PowerShell as the default scripting environment, or provide parity by including bash/zsh examples.
  • Mention installation and usage steps for Azure CLI and PowerShell on Linux and macOS, not just Windows.
  • If PowerShell is included, note that PowerShell Core is available cross-platform, and provide examples compatible with Linux/macOS.
  • Consider adding a table or section comparing workflows on Windows vs. Linux, highlighting any differences.

Flagged Code Snippets

After importing the API, if needed, you can update the settings by using the [az apim api update](/cli/azure/apim/api#az-apim-api-update) command.

#### [PowerShell](#tab/powershell)

The following example uses the [Import-AzApiManagementApi](/powershell/module/az.apimanagement/import-azapimanagementapi?) Azure PowerShell cmdlet to import an OpenAPI specification from the specified URL to an API Management instance named *apim-hello-world*. To import using a path to a specification instead of a URL, use the `-SpecificationPath` parameter.
