Hello,

New to Dynatrace and the is my first post in the Community,&nbsp; I see that the Filesystem monitoring supports Azure Blob Storage monitoring, but am having a hard time figuring out how to configure the extension for this.&nbsp; The documentation only says that

```markup
Azure Blob storage is supported.
When selected, two new fields will appear: the Azure account and the key.
Make sure OneAgent has network connectivity to Azure.

```

But, I don’t see anywhere in the configuration that I can select Azure or enter in the Account Details and Container Name.

Anyone familiar with how to achieve this by any chance?

Thanks for your help,

Tom

Hello&nbsp;[@tdavison76](https://community.dynatrace.com/user/100398)&nbsp;under File System you can select Azure file share and complete the details. See image attached.
