# Azure Blob destination

> This page explains how to set up an Azure Blob destination.

[Azure Blob Storage](https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/products/storage/blobs) is Microsoft’s cloud object storage solution optimized for storing unstructured data such as documents, media files, and backups at a massive scale.

To set up an Azure Blob destination:

1. In Azure, create a service principal account with authorization to perform a `Put Blob` operation. For more information, see the Azure documentation on [creating a service principal](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/entra/identity-platform/howto-create-service-principal-portal) and on [authorizing a `Put Blob` operation](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/storageservices/put-blob?tabs=microsoft-entra-id#authorization).
2. In Axiom, create an Azure Blob destination. For more information, see [Manage destinations](/process-data/destinations/manage-destinations).
3. Configure the following:
   * In **URL**, enter the path to the storage account.
   * In **Format**, specify the format in which Axiom sends data to the destination.
   * In **Directory (tenant) ID**, enter the directory (tenant) ID. For more information on getting the directory (tenant) ID ID, see the [Azure documentation](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/entra/identity-platform/howto-create-service-principal-portal#sign-in-to-the-application).
   * In **Application ID**, enter the app ID. For more information on getting the app ID, see the [Azure documentation](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/entra/identity-platform/howto-create-service-principal-portal#sign-in-to-the-application).
   * In **Application secret**, enter the app secret. For more information on creating a client secret, see the [Azure documentation](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/entra/identity-platform/howto-create-service-principal-portal#option-3-create-a-new-client-secret).
