Anonymous Access to Azure Storage Media Container
# help-with-umbraco
p
Hi, Can anyone help with this, we have an Azure Storage account, where we store the media folder (as per the Umbraco setup guidelines), Is there a way to change how the umbraco instance accesses this container so that it's AuthenticationType is not Anonymous. I hope this make sense, or does it need to be anonymous so that the media items can be publicly available.

The
Umbraco.StorageProviders.AzureBlob
storage provider works with blob containers that have their anonymous access level set to
Private
. As long as the connection string is setup correctly [(docs)](https://docs.umbraco.com/umbraco-cms/extending/filesystemproviders/azure-blob-storage#configuring-blob-storage), it should be able to authenticate a private blob just fine. https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1209794570011942963/1210221705763749949/image.png?ex=65e9c5cb&is=65d750cb&hm=76e7b0da33e04460af86b810d976fc260b9f82bb60c505f59c2f44e49eeed19c&

Nice one, Owain. I'll give it a go.
