Explanation of each field

Note

When you import the management information, if you specify Enable Managed ID, you must specify Azure Storage Account. You cannot specify Azure Storage SAS Token and Azure Storage Key.

Authentication that uses either an Azure storage SAS token or an Azure storage key is called "Shared Key authentication".

When you use "Shared Key" authentication, set either the Azure storage account or Azure storage SAS token.

If both are set, only the value for Azure storage SAS token is used.

For details on the priority of use for "Shared Key authentication" that uses an Azure storage SAS token or an Azure storage key and "Enable managed ID", refer to Storage Authentication Information settings.
