Azure Classroom Series – 14/Oct/2021

Storage Account Blob Storage

• Create a Storage Account and add a container with private access
• Upload some files to this
• We will not be access these files over internet, now lets assume we would like to give access to a particular object/container for a certain period of time to some user then we can use Shared Access Signatures (SAS) Tokens
• SAS for object:
• To create SAS Tokens, we use Access keys and if you rotate your access keys then the object/container shared via SAS URL will not work.
• Exercise: Try to do the above steps
  • Create a SAS for object with access key key1
  • Try to access your object using browser
  • Now Navigate to Storage Account and Rotate the Access Key key1 and observe whether the SAS url for object is still working or not .
  • It should not work. IN these cases you need to generate a new SAS Token
