如何获取Azure存储帐户密钥

Question

I want to upload a file to an Azure Storage account that is automatically generated (As part of a Service Fabric resource group, with a known name), using C#.

I need to upload the file as a blob to allow it to be publicly available.

The tutorial Get started with Azure Blob storage using .NET uses a connection string stored in the App.config file. Since I want to use the to-be-generated storage account, I can't use such a method.

The prefered method is using the user's AD somehow in order to get the key of the storage account.

This link: Get Storage Account Key shows how to GET it with a Rest request, so I guess there is a way to do it using C# code.

It seems to me, that the solution is using the StorageManagementClient class , which has a StorageAccounts property, though I could not find a way to authenticate it using AzureAd.

I tried using AuthenticationContext.AcquireTokenAsync , and aquiring a token for diffenent resources, for instance: https://management.azure.com/ , but when using the token, I get the following error:

Microsoft.WindowsAzure.CloudException: AuthenticationFailed: The JWT token does not contain expected audience uri 'https://management.core.windows.net/'.

When using the resource https://management.core.windows.net/ I get a different error:

Microsoft.WindowsAzure.CloudException: ForbiddenError: The server failed to authenticate the request. Verify that the certificate is valid and is associated with this subscription.

Is there a different resource I should use, different method, or maybe it's impossible?

To use the Storage Service Management REST , we need to specify the resource to https://management.core.windows.net/ instead of https://management.azure.com/ . And this is using the operate the classic storage account.

The https://management.azure.com/ is the new endpoint for the Azure REST service . If you want to handle the new storage account, you need to use this resource. And below is a sample using the new Azure REST for your reference:

POST: https://management.azure.com/subscriptions/{subscriptionId}/resourceGroups/{resrouceGroupName}/providers/Microsoft.Storage/storageAccounts/{storageAccountName}/listKeys?api-version=2016-01-01
Authorization: Bearer {token}
