[IanMercer]

If the AzureWebJobsStorage setting only supports AccountName, AccountKey it would handy to know that.

@ianmercer the article specifically says storage account connection string, which cannot be a SAS. A SAS is provided in an HTTP request to a specific resource URL in the storage account, which you can read about here. I can't think of how to make that more clear. If you have a suggestion, please reopen this issue. Thanks!

Elsewhere we read _"Create a connection string using a shared access signature"_ so NO, it's not OBVIOUS that "a connection string cannot be a SAS token". Maybe to you it is, but to your average user it is not. Maybe adding something as simple as "You cannot use SAS tokens for the AzureWebJobsStorageSetting" would help clear up any confusion.
