Azure Blob Storage Pre-Signed Url Features

votes

As my experiences, AWS S3 has a feature called pre-signed. Which allows me to issue a url with specific expiry time to access.

I cannot find any details about that on Azure official website.

So, does anyone know if Azure Blob Storage can support pre-signed url features?

Yes, Azure Blob Storage supports that. It is called Shared Access Signature (SAS) in Azure Storage. A SAS enables you to provide time-bound, permission-limited access to storage resources. You can create a SAS on either a blob container/blob (Container Level SAS) or all blob containers/blobs in an account (Account Level SAS).

You can read more about it here: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/storageservices/delegating-access-with-a-shared-access-signature.
