The Cloud File Access plug-in offers three ways to connect to Azure Blob Storage:

  • Account Key: To connect using the account key, you must specify the name of your storage account and the key. You can find the key in the Azure Portal under “Access Keys” (Step 1). The name can be found in Step 2 and the key in Step 3. Copy this and paste it into the OPC Router. The following image shows where to find this information.

  • Connection string: To establish a connection, simply copy the connection string from the Azure Portal under “Access key” and paste it into the OPC Router.
  • SAS Token: In the Azure Portal, under “Shared Access Signature (SAS),” generate a SAS token and enter it along with the storage account name in the OPC Router.
