Making input files accessible from Azure
We use an AWS S3 bucket for uploading input files, and then make those input files temporarily publicly accessible so that our actors can access them. There has been talk of migrating away from AWS to Azure. Is there a way within Azure to make input files accessible to Apify actors? Thanks in advance!

Hi @danhelfman,
do I understand correctly that you are using the input "Link remote text file" option? If so, I don't there is a way to handle the authentication securely.
If you are loading these files directly in the code, you could either store the access token either in the secret environment variable or pass it as an input that has isSecret flag set to true in the input schema.

I am loading these files directly in the code. I had not thought about storing the Azure access token as an environment variable. Thanks for the suggestion!
