Create deep links using SAS tokens #647

Open BossensM opened 6 years ago

BossensM commented 6 years ago

The Azure portal uses a deep link storageexplorer://v=1 to directly open Storage Explorer from the web browser. This functionality is not documented.

Is it possible to create a deep link for a container using a SAS token, allowing us to create web links to containers opening up Storage Explorer on your computer?

craxal commented 6 years ago

Yes! Just right-click the node for your container and select Copy Direct Link to Blob Container.

It works when I have the full storage account attached in storage explorer, but could I also use a container with SAS token in the URL to attach a new one?

craxal commented 6 years ago

Hmm, unfortunately no. Not with our current version of deep links. We require account ID and subscription ID. I can't say when we might get to it., but it's possible we can change that in the future.

Is there any update to this? Can we have authentication data like SAS token passed in direct links?

Would be really nice to be able to do this. The alternative is very manual process

That would indeed be good. We could offer a deep link for peoples upload folder so that they can use Azure Storage Explorer to upload and manage files (like an ftp client)
