title: How to monitor read write activities on Azure Blob Storage
body: <p>Need to figure out how to log/retrieve information about who (which Azure AD user) has read/write on blobs in our azure blob storage.</p>
  
  <p>I know you can turn on logging on the storage account level using this:</p>
  
  <p><a href="https://i.stack.imgur.com/5EL99.png" rel="nofollow noreferrer"><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/5EL99.png" alt="enter image description here"></a></p>
  
  <p>I can see in the logs the different api calls that have been performed on the blob but If I myself went via the azure portal to open some of the blobs, I could not see this activity recorded in the logs. Any ideas how to monitor this? I need it for auditing purposes.</p>
