    Hi @Sumarigo-MSFT
    I am using Azure storage Explorer on linux.
    I was using this for Azure Blob storage on iot edge.I got the issue resolved by downgrading my storage Explorer to 1.14. i tried 1.15 and 1.17. both gave the same error.. Now i was able to create a local container using storage explorer and deploy the edge module successfully.
    Thanks for the quick reply. Cheers ☺️

    @Anurag Shelar For better understanding of the issue: Can you create a blob container in Azure Portal?
    May I know which version of Azure Storage Explorer are you using?
    Are you using Azure Blob Storage on IoT Edge? If so, please refer to this article https://video2.skills-academy.com/en-us/azure/iot-edge/how-to-store-data-blob?view=iotedge-2018-06

    (Have you chosen the right option in the section "Connect to your blob storage module" (depending on if your modules are deployed on the same edge device than your Blob Storage or not))
