# SAS key setup

SAS key setup lets you connect to Azure to perform specific actions, such as reading, writing, and transferring data to and from an Azure server.

Before using this feature, an Azure File Storage account must be available. For a brief guide, see [Azure Storage account setup](/business-central/docs/bc-azure-storage-account-setup).

> Pasting the full URL + SAS key in the **Base URL** field fills in all other fields automatically.

| Field | Description |
| --- | --- |
| Storage account | The storage account identifier. Applies to the Azure storage account to authenticate with, the storage key (the entire query string part of the SAS key), and the share scope (the file share with possible subfolders that the key limits to). This field auto-populates when pasting a full SaaS URL in the **Base URL** field. |
| Storage key | The storage key used to access the directory. This field auto-populates when pasting a full SaaS URL in the **Base URL** field. |
| Share Scope | The file share on the Azure storage to write to. This field auto-populates when pasting a full SaaS URL in the **Base URL** field. |
| Base URL | Copy the base URL from the Azure environment. Refer to [Azure Shared Access Signature setup](/business-central/docs/bc-azure-shared-access-signature-setup). |
| Add To | A SAS key can only add to **Query parameters**, as per the SAS key standard. |

> [!NOTE]
> **Note**
> 
> Make sure the folders exist on the file share. The file share name itself is not part of the folder path.
