Hi all,

i am trying to connect with a Azure blob storage container, with the AzureBlobStorageConnector transformer in fme 2020.0.2.1.

but its not working i am getting this message:

 

'Server failed to authenticate the request. Make sure the value of Authorization header is formed correctly including the signature. ErrorCode: AuthenticationFailed'

 

And when i use the SAS url in the browser i see a xml with all the containers that are available in the blob storage.

 

 

Could someone help about this topic, please?

Hi @aarraye​ ,

Where did you get your SAS from? The screenshot you showed looks different to the SAS I generate in the Portal.

I believe in order to use SAS, you need to 'Allow blob Public Access' which you can do under Settings > Configuration in the Azure Portal.

I'm including a screenshot here of how I configured mine and you can see that it successfully listed what I have in my container:

We are seeing this issue but only if we apply IP filtering to the SAS key, without it works fine. Were you using IP specification when generating the key
