Azure Container Creation

Create a Blob Storage Container​

At this point we now need a place to put the files. As the Microsoft documentation states "Azure Blob Storage allows you to store large amounts of unstructured object data." This will be where the AI-READI files will be ultimately delivered. If you already have a container you can skip to the next step to create a SAS token.

  1. In the Azure Portal, go to "Storage accounts" and click your storage account.
  2. In the left sidebar under "Data storage", click "Containers".
Containers menu item
  1. Click "+ Add Container" tab.
Tab to create container
  1. Set the container details
  • Name: Must be lowercase, no spaces.
  • Public access level: Select "Private (no anonymous access)".
Tab to create container
  1. Click the "Create" button.

Note: Save your Container Name along with the Storage Account name for use in the dataset request.
