Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by referencing Azure PowerShell as the primary CLI tool for assigning roles to service principals, without mentioning cross-platform alternatives such as Azure CLI or providing Linux/macOS-specific instructions. The examples and links focus on PowerShell and portal-based workflows, which are more familiar to Windows users, and do not offer parity for Linux users or those using bash or other shells.
Recommendations
  • Include Azure CLI examples for assigning roles to service principals, as Azure CLI is cross-platform and widely used on Linux and macOS.
  • Explicitly mention that Azure PowerShell is available on Linux/macOS, or provide instructions for installing and using it on those platforms.
  • Add bash or shell script examples where appropriate, especially for automation scenarios.
  • Ensure that portal instructions are supplemented with command-line alternatives for users who prefer or require non-GUI workflows.
  • Review linked articles to ensure Linux/macOS parity in examples and instructions.
