HOW TO CREATE A STORAGE ACCOUNT IN AZURE

Azure Portal, Azure PowerShell, Azure CLI, or an Azure Resource Manager (ARM) template can all be used to create an Azure storage account. Here, I will walk you through the procedure via the Azure Portal, which is the easiest way for novices to follow:

1.Open the Azure Portal.
Use your Azure account to log in.

2.Go to the Storage accounts page.

4.Set up advanced options (if desired):

Most settings can be left at their default levels, but depending on your needs, you might want to change things like replication, access tier, and network settings.
Examine and produce:

5.Go through your setup on the "Review + create" tab.
Press "Review + create" to confirm your configuration.
To create the storage account, click "Create" if the validation is successful.
