💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using the share name as the path.

Using container or blob names instead of a file name.

The --path parameter specifies the destination file name in the file share. It should be the file name like remoteFile.txt, not a share or container name.

Common Mistakes

Setting quota to a string with units like '100GB' instead of just '100'.

Using a container name instead of a file share name.

The --name parameter is the file share name, here projectfiles. The --quota parameter sets the size limit in GB, here 100.
