1. choco install mkcert

2. mkcert -install

3. Create new directory for cert store

• d:\mkcerts
• mkcert 127.0.0.1

4. Start Azurite

• azurite –location c:\azurite –debug c:\azurite\debug.log –cert “D:\mkcerts\127.0.0.1.pem” –key “D:\mkcerts\127.0.0.1-key.pem” –oauth basic

• Or selected services:
  • # Run only Blob
    azurite-blob –silent –location c:\azurite –debug c:\azurite\debug.log –oauth basic
  • # Run only Queue
    azurite-queue –silent –location c:\azurite –debug c:\azurite\debug.log –oauth basic
  • # Run only Table
    azurite-table –silent –location c:\azurite –debug c:\azurite\debug.log –oauth basic

5. Use the Service

You will now be able to attach to the local service using Azure Blob Storage:
