    Hi,
     
    There is a temporary issue with settings ACLs through Microsoft Azure Storage Explorer, until this is resolved, as a temporary mitigation you can try using this powershel script:https://setacls.blob.core.windows.net/scriptfolder/setacls.ps1
     
    In order to run the script, your global tenant admin needs to have "Storage Blob Data Contributor (Preview)" role on your storage account.
     
    Instructions on how to run this script:
        
    1. Login as global tenant administrator into Azure portal and open PowerShell (Cloud Shell) in your browser
    2. Choose Azure CLI 2.0 (type ‘az’)
    3. Upload the script (there is a button for it)
    4. Run the script. For example:  /home/admin/setacls -storageaccountname your_alds_gen2_storage_account_name

     

    The script will ask you to sign in, please follow the instructions.
     
    Thanks,
    Michael

     

     

    Hi,

     

    There is no more need in this workaround, please use ASE 1.6.2 which is availably for update and download.

     

    Thanks,

    Michael

I would like to update that a new version with the ACL issue fix should be available next week. Until then, another option is to opt in for insider builds of Azure Storage Explorer. In Azure Storage Explorer, click on the Help menu, then Opt in to insider builds. a build should be available via that route sooner.
