# Using Kubernetes Secrets with Azure Storage connection data

### **Creating a Storage Account and File Shares**

Refer to the [DupoCloud documentation](#creating-a-storage-account-and-file-shares) to configure Storage Account and File Share in Azure.

Copy the Storage Account Key and File Share Name from the DuploCloud Portal to prepare to create Kubernetes Secrets in the next step.

### **Creating Kubernetes Secret**

Navigate to **Kubernetes** -> **Secrets**. Create a Kubernetes Secret Object using an Azure Storage Account.

For more information, see [Kubernetes Configs and Secrets](/docs/automation-platform/kubernetes-overview/configs-and-secrets.md).

{% code title="SecretDetails example" %}

```
azurestorageaccountkey: >-
    <storage-account-key>
azurestorageaccountname: <storage-account-name>
```

{% endcode %}

### Mounting the Azure Storage connection in your deployment

While creating a deployment, provide the configuration below under **Other Pod Config** and **Other Container Config** to create and mount the storage volume for your Service. In the configuration below, `shareName` is the [File Share name, ](/docs/automation-platform/overview-2/azure-services/storage-account.md#create-and-view-file-shares)which you can get from the **Storage Account** screen.

{% code title="Other Pod Config" overflow="wrap" %}

```
PodLabels:
  app: azuretest
Volumes:
  - name: azurefileshare
    azureFile:
      secretName: my-storage-account-key
      shareName: fileshare1
      readOnly: false
```

{% endcode %}

{% code title="Other Container Config" %}

```
VolumesMounts:
  - name: azurefileshare
    mountPath: /myfileshare
```

{% endcode %}

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.duplocloud.com/docs/automation-platform/kubernetes-overview/configs-and-secrets/using-kubernetes-secrets-with-azure-storage-connection-data.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
