Hi,

I'm trying to figure out how to use the SAS tokens to read files stored in a container. Could someone guide me on the correct way to use these tokens?

    Hi there sasthha

    Thanks for using QandA platform,

    Not sure what you mean but iof its about reading it from a container using a SAS token, combine the storage URL with the SAS token like this:

    https://<storage-account>.blob.core.windows.net/<container>/<file>?<SAS-token>

    You can open this full URL in a browser to download the file, or use tools like Azure Storage Explorer, curl, or SDKs.\

    If this he;lps kindly accept the answr thanks much,
