Files & storage
Set up Azure Blob Storage
Connect an Azure Blob Storage container (or a prefix within one). Every blob becomes a document; later syncs re-read only blobs whose ETag changed. Read-only.
- In the Azure portal open the storage account → Security + networking → Access keys and copy a key — or, to hand out less, open the container → Shared access tokens and issue a SAS with just Read and List.
- Documents → Azure Blob Storage: enter the storage account name and the container, then paste the account key or the SAS token.
- Optionally set a prefix (policies/) to sync a folder-like slice, and exclude patterns for what to leave out.
- Choose access groups, Test, then Sync.
The account key opens the whole account — prefer a SAS token scoped to this container with Read + List only, and mind its expiry: the source stops syncing when it passes, and a fresh token goes in its place. Sovereign clouds (Azure China, US Government) set their endpoint suffix under Advanced.
