Question

I don't see storage account in azure storage explorer, but I have RBAC setup

Lukáš Urban 0

Hello,

I created a new user in Microsoft Entra ID named user1
I enabled public network access to storage account

Storage account > Security + Networking > Networking > Public network access: Enabled from all networks

I assigned Blob Data Owner role to user1

Storage account > Access Control (IAM) > Role assignments > user1 has Storage Blob Data Owner role (scope: this resource)

and when I open Azure File Explorer and authorize myself as user1 I don't see any storage container

storage

Why is that and what am I missing?

Hello Lukáš,

It looks like you already have the right configuration however if it's not working you can validate with "View my access" option on the storage resource and verify that you have the storage blob data role required. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/role-based-access-control/check-access.

Additionally you can check the Storage Blob logs to identify any other issue on your access.(https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/blobs/monitor-blob-storage?tabs=azure-portal#kusto-queries)

Hello Luis,

Thank you. I added additional role Reader and Data Access to user1 and now the user can see the storage in File Explorer 🤗

Best,
Lukas
