I am working on generating a Shared access signature on Azure blob storage using Azure Blob storage client library v12 for .NET. Until now, I figured out how to generate token SAS on a Container and a File but, I can't find on Microsoft Documentation how to generate SAS on a specific virtual folder in my container.

Is it doable? Thank you in advanced

Flat-namespace blob containers don't have real folders, and don't support file or folder-level security. If you create a storage account with a Hierarchical namespace you gain the ability to grant file and folder-level ACLs for Azure Active Directory principals.
