Form Recognizer Cannot Connect to Blob Due to Firewall

I have set up a blob for Form Recognizer to connect to. The container is set with "Enabled from all networks". However, when I try to use Form Recognizer to train the pdfs stored in the blob, I receive a "Access denied due to Virtual Network/Firewall rules". Are there any other settings for me to change?

Ultimately I want to set my container to only allow my Form Recognizer to connect, but right now connection fails even when the container is set to be open to the public.

    @Nick Ho Ok, If the container is open to all networks and CORS is enabled the container should be accessible with a valid SAS URI. We should be able to download the files locally with the blob URI too from the browser or through a GET request. Does this work too? If yes, then the setup seems to be good but there seems to be an issue with this container.
    It may be easier to test with a new storage account to rule out possibilities of any other settings issue. Thanks!!
