This Chapter covers following Lab Exercises

• Create Blob Storage Container using Azure CLI
• Create Blob Storage Container using PowerShell

Exercise 189: Create Blob Storage Container using Azure CLI

Exercise 190: Create Blob Storage Container using PowerShell

In this exercise we will create Blob Storage Container hk410ps in Storage Account stdps410 and in Resource Group HKPS. Storage Account stdps410 was created in Exercise 188. Resource Group HKPS was created in Exercise 182.

Connect to Azure using PowerShell
Open PowerShell command prompt on your desktop and login using Connect-AzureRmAccount.

Create Storage Container
New-AzureRmStorageContainer -Name hk410ps -StorageAccountName stdps410 -ResourceGroupName HKPS

This command creates container with permission private no anonymous access.

Check the Storage Container created
Get-AzureRmStorageContainer -Name hk410ps -StorageAccountName stdps410
-ResourceGroupName HKPS or Get-AzureRmStorageContainer -StorageAccountName stdps410
-ResourceGroupName HKPS
