how to connect SAS Enterprise to Azure Blob storage account

[beebeebee]

my software version is this:

SAS Enterprise Guide 7.15 HF8 (64-bit)
SAS version 9.4

thank you!

Start by checking what SAS/ACCESS products you have available to you and post here:

proc product_status;
run;
proc setinit;
run;

AFAIK SAS 9.4 can't process BLOBs, only character and numeric data.

thanks for your reply.

i am looking to get "files" containing plain text from Azure Blob storage.

the original question is, what is the connection string to an Azure Blob storage?

my intention is to perform REST calls as documented here:
