Answer 1

Hi @CHAARI Ahmed

Thank you for asking this question on the **Microsoft Q&A Platform. **

You can access an Azure File Share via the industry standard Server Message Block (SMB) protocol, Network File System (NFS) protocol, and Azure Files REST API.

Here is the documentation for the configuration for SMB file shares in Azure Files.

Hope this helps!

Hi, @CHAARI Ahmed

Maybe you can.

The following example uses Amazon FSx, but when the AppStream administrator creates the serving image, you can configures a script to mount the user drive when the streaming session starts.

Perhaps in the same way you can achieve Azure File as well.
