When I hit the URL, I view this: -
This XML file does not appear to have any style information associated with it. The document tree is shown below.
Globally unique resources that provide access to data management services and serve as the parent namespace for the services.
An Azure service that stores unstructured data in the cloud as blobs.

go to the blob container and then change access level to anonymous read access to container. this will resolve

Initially i had this problem too, now i am able to create a url to a single file of a block blob. I still cannot access the URL to the container though - not sure why.
But then again, why would we want to generate URLS for? These are technically not for purpose of file share. right?
On what situation would you want a URL?
@Mayank Sharma Welcome to Microsoft Q&A Forum, Thank you for posting your query here!
As I understand, you need to access Azure blob container through URL am I correct? If, so it won't work. You can't access the container, You can access specific /individual file of the the blob container through Brower . Generate a Blob SAS URL and access through browser.
The most easiest way to access blob container or file is through Azure Storage explorer tool and Shared Access Signature will help you to access specific blob file through browser.
Please let us know if you have any further queries. I’m happy to assist you further.

Hello @Sumarigo-MSFT ,
I am trying to access my container through SAS but when I access the URL, I can only see the XML code in browser which I mentioned above in the question.
I do not want to use Azure storage explorer, I want to access it through browser only.
