Hi,

I would like to set up an FTP site that would utilize Azure File Share as FTP folder, all my users are in AD have been sync to AAD so I'm looking for some resource or guidance on how to go about this, any feedback is much appreciated.

    @JohnWeb
    Azure Files does not currently natively support FTP or FTPS protocols. There is an existing request for this, so feel free to follow it and your voice. There is a code sample which includes setup of an Azure Container Instance with SFTP, though it doesn't include AD integration. If you wish to go that route you will need to find a third party solution.

    @deherman-MSFT Is this still something on your backlog? Your link to the existing request is a 404.

    Having FTP access to an Azure File Share would be very helpful.
