Using ABE to control the visibility of the files and folders in SMB Azure file shares isn't currently a supported scenario. ABE is a feature of DFS-N, so it's possible to configure identity-based authentication and enable the ABE feature. However, this only applies to the DFS-N folder targets; it doesn't retroactively apply to the targeted file shares themselves. This is because DFS-N works by referral, rather than as a proxy in front of the folder target.
