Hi Guys,

This is regarding below error that I am getting when I am trying to add Azure Storage Account to configure Splunk_TA_microsoft-cloudservices.

"ERROR AdminManagerExternal - Unexpected error "<class 'splunktaucclib.rest_handler.error.RestError'>" from python handler: "REST Error [400]: Bad Request -- Account authentication failed. Please check your credentials and try again". 

We have already tested the the storage account and access key and it works fine.

Has anyone come across similar issue?

I had the same issue setting up an Azure App Account. Turns out it was due to having

mgmtHostPort = 0.0.0.0:8089

vs the default of

mgmtHostPort = 127.0.0.1:8089

in web.conf/[settings].
