Optional: Configuring an Environment to Use a Specific Storage Account

By default, the Genvid Toolbox automatically creates a storage account when uploading images. You can override this by setting the AZURE_STORAGE_ACCOUNT environment variable from the command prompt used to run the toolbox commands. You will need to do this every time you want to run commands that interact with the Azure environment.

AZURE_STORAGE_ACCOUNT must be set to the name of the storage account you want to use. For example, if name of your storage account is genvidtechprivate, AZURE_STORAGE_ACCOUNT must also be set to genvidtechprivate.

Azure storage account names must:

• Be UNIQUE within Azure,

• be between 3 and 24 characters in length, and

• contain only numbers and lowercase letters

The resource group the storage account is created in is set to Genvidtech by default. You can override this by setting the AZURE_RESOURCE_GROUP environment variable from the command prompt used to run the Toolbox commands. You will need to do this every time you want to run commands that interact with the Azure environment.
