title: How to access the persistent shared storage of Azure Web Apps For Containers
body: <p>My micro-service will create some files that I need to access, these are mainly archive or error data.</p>
  <p>I found the article from here that Microsoft azure app service by default mount persistent shared storage across the container</p>
  <p>From Microsoft documentation:</p>
  <blockquote>
  <p>&quot;You can use the <code>/home</code> directory in your app's file system to
  persist files across restarts and share them across instances. The
  <code>/home</code> in your app is provided to enable your container app to access
  persistent storage.&quot;</p>
  </blockquote>
  <p>More details here: <a href="https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/app-service/containers/configure-custom-container#use-persistent-shared-storage" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/app-service/containers/configure-custom-container#use-persistent-shared-storage</a></p>
  <p>Now I want to access the <code>/home</code> directory to check the files created by the service.</p>
  <p>I tried a lot of approaches like using the using FTPS using the  deployment credentials, but I am not able to see the <code>/home</code> directory</p>
  <p>How I can access the persistent-shared-storage which is mount to the docker container?</p>
  <p>I can not configure separate storage to app service as it is in preview mode and not supported for production scenario as per this documentation:</p>
