Advocate IError creating a shortcut to ADLS Gen2
I have found the reason for the error.
The storage account was created by my collegue who did not enable "hierarchical namespace".
I now have created another account with that option enabled an creating a shortcut works like a charm.
Super UserHi mriedmuell
Could it be due to the fact that your storage account is in a different region to your fabric tenant?
Advocate IHi GilbertQ unfortunately they both are in North Europe, so it should not be the cause for the error.

What happens if you create a folder in the ADLS and put in a sample file and then try and create the shortcut?

I have created a container and uploaded two files.
I can see those files when I fill the target information for the shortcut.I chose the container and am able to proceed in the GUI to the next step.
