Azure Storage Services

Services

Service Use When MCP Tools CLI Blob Storage Objects, files, backups, static content azure__storage az storage blob File Shares SMB file shares, lift-and-shift - az storage file Queue Storage Async messaging, task queues - az storage queue Table Storage NoSQL key-value (consider Cosmos DB) - az storage table Data Lake Big data analytics, hierarchical namespace - az storage fs

MCP Server (Preferred)

When Azure MCP is enabled:

  • azure__storage with command storage_account_list - List storage accounts

  • azure__storage with command storage_container_list - List containers in account

  • azure__storage with command storage_blob_list - List blobs in container

  • azure__storage with command storage_blob_get - Download blob content

  • azure__storage with command storage_blob_put - Upload blob content

If Azure MCP is not enabled: Run /azure:setup or enable via /mcp.
