You can do it via Powershell. Here is an example for Azures ARM (not classic, but you can convert it easily).

Select-AzureRmSubscription -SubscriptionName "subscription" $Name = 'storageaccountname' $resourcegroup = 'resourcegroup'

$sp = New-Object -TypeName Microsoft.WindowsAzure.Storage.Shared.Protocol.ServiceProperties 

$sp.DefaultServiceVersion = "2017-04-17" $key = (Get-AzureRMStorageAccountKey -StorageAccountName $Name
-ResourceGroupName $resourcegroup).Value[1]

$context = New-AzureStorageContext -StorageAccountName $Name
-StorageAccountKey $key

$blobClient = $context.StorageAccount.Create
