If you would like to user Microsoft Azure Blob storage as a source or destination, please follow these simple steps:

– Use a standard URL to access a source or destination locatlon: http(s)://[access_key]@[account].blob.core.windows.net/[container]/path
– Ensure to URL encode any special characters within the access_key 

Here is one example of a properly constructed URL:
http://P9DM47UTCF%2BQJZXl0uWy28J4jBdgnYv0SJPh%2FR%2AWCFOLPTBHuyeXtMfDOU75Wd0Yl2xm67vVTYGVAWSEDRdcw%3D%3D@[account].blob.core.windows.net/encoding/file.ext

Special notes for Azure Blob Storage:

– Your container name must consist of 3-63 characters, digits or sign “-“. Please make sure to not have a “-” at the beginning or end of your container name.  
– If you do not include the access_key within your URL, they will be interpreted like casual urls. files in such urls should be public readable.
