Azure Table Storage

Connecting to Azure

Set Account to the storage account name and set the AccessKey of the storage account to connect. Follow the steps below to obtain these values:

If using Storage as the Backend (default):

1. Log into the Azure portal and select Storage Accounts in the services menu on the left.

2. If you currently do not have any storage accounts, create one by clicking the Add button.

3. Click the link for the storage account you want to use and select Access Keys under Settings. The Access Keys window contains the storage account name and key (you can use either key1 or key2 to connect) that you will need to use in the provider. These properties map to the Account and AccessKey provider connection properties respectively.

If using CosmosDB as the Backend:

1. Log into the Azure portal and select Cosmos DB in the services menu on the left.

2. Click the link for the Cosmos DB account you want to use and select Connection String under Settings. The Connection String window contains the Cosmos DB account name and primary key that you will need to use in the provider. These properties map to the Account and AccessKey provider connection properties respectively.
