Azure Blob Storage

Category: Azure · File

File storage in Azure. Upload files directly and add them as tables.

Connection requirements

  • Account name
  • Container name
  • SAS token

Setup

Create a SAS token via the storage account → Security + Networking → Shared Access Signature.

Where to find these

  • Account name — the name of the storage account. In the Azure PortalStorage accounts → pick (or create) the account; the name is shown at the top and on the Overview blade.
  • Container name — a blob container inside that account. Open the storage account → Containers blade; the name of the container holding your files is what you enter here. You can also create a new container here.
  • SAS token — the query string that grants access. Create it via the storage account → Security + networkingShared access signature: choose Blob as the allowed service, select the permissions you need (at least Read and List) and an expiry, then click Generate SAS and connection string. A container-scoped SAS is also possible via Container → Shared access tokens. The token is the part after the question mark: ?sv=...&ss=...&sig=.... Copy it immediately — it is shown only once.
