      smfaizhaider could you tell me what was the issue? I have a similar problem - I can connect with my blob from a PROD Server (Azure VM) using "Azure Storage Explorer" and I can successfully test the connection in SSIS using "Azure Storage Connection Manager", but I can not pull data from BLOB using  "Azure Blob Download Task" - I have an error like "The underlying connection was closed: An unexpected error occurred on a send".
      Can Anyone help?
