Setup an Azure Blob

  • Using Azure portal search for Storage accounts

    • Click on ‘+Add’ to create a new storage account by entering the relevant config details

    • Once the Account is setup, select ‘Containers’ from the Overview page, Now select ‘+Container’ to create a new blob container - giving it a name when prompted

    • After the blob is created, please create ‘directory’ inside this blob for your artifacts. To do this simply select the blob and create a new directory

      Note: The blob directory will be visible in the portal only after a file exists

  • Specify endpoint URL as follows
