After creating Azure function app, I noted that an Azure Storage Account got created, as shown below in the Resource Group contents.


Let’s discuss about why and how this storage account is being used by Azure functions.

Click Storage Account name to navigate to the storage account, as shown below.


To view the files that Azure Function stores, click Files Service, as shown above.


Click File Share, as shown above to view the folder.


You can view the folders given below.
