If you use the portal, you can create a storage account and container during configuration. Otherwise, to create a storage account, see [Create a storage account](../storage/common/storage-account-create.md) in the Azure storage documentation. Once you have a storage account, you can see how to create a blob container in the [Azure blob storage quickstarts](../storage/blobs/storage-quickstart-blobs-portal.md). By default, Azure IoT Hub uses key-based authentication to connect and authorize with Azure Storage. You can also configure user-assigned or system-assigned managed identities to authenticate Azure IoT Hub with Azure Storage. Managed identities provide Azure services with an automatically managed identity in Azure AD in a secure manner. To learn how to configure managed identities, see [Configure file upload with managed identities](iot-hub-managed-identity.md#configure-file-upload-with-managed-identities).
