To connect your Azure Cloud Shell to an Azure Storage account, you can use the az storage blob upload command. Here are the steps to follow:

1. Log in to your Azure account using the az login command.
2. Once you are logged in, create a storage account using the az storage account create command.
3. Create a container within the storage account using the az storage container create command.
4. Upload a file to the container using the az storage blob upload command.

Here is an example command to upload a file to a container within a storage account:

az storage blob upload --account-name mystorageaccount --account-key 00000000 --container-name mycontainer --type block --file /path/to/local/file --name myfile

Replace mystorageaccount with the name of your storage account, 00000000 with your account key, mycontainer with the name of your container, /path/to/local/file with the path to the file you want to upload, and myfile with the name, you want to give the file in the container.
