Hi, I've signed up for the sFTP (Preview) addon and I've got it working to upload my data to a container I made, however I cannot change the static website from the $web directory.
When i try to add the sFTP user to the $web container, it says:
"The value '$web' is not allowed for property permissionScope.resourceName"`
How can I serve my custom container as a static website while uploading through sFTP? Or can I use another Azure service to pull the data out of the container to serve or even something to automatically move the data from my container to $web?
@Matt Langley Firstly apologies for the delay in responding here! Are you using ADLS Gen2 or Azure Storge account?
ADLS Gen2 accounts (accounts with hierarchical namespace enabled) have Blob REST and DFS REST endpoints enabled by default. You can use these protocols on SFTP enabled accounts as well.
From Limitations and known issues with SSH File Transfer Protocol (SFTP) support for Azure Blob Storage :
Special containers such as $logs, $blobchangefeed, $root, $web aren't accessible via the SFTP endpoint.
