    Hi @Prasanna

    By seeing your above response, it seems like you're having trouble with slow performance when attaching files in SAP Business One because of how Azure Blob Storage is set up. While the details provided don't directly talk about the hang issues with SAP B1 and Azure Blob Storage, this might be because of how your Azure Blob Storage is set up. While the context provided does not specifically address hang issues related to SAP B1 and Azure Blob Storage, there are general considerations for storage performance in Azure that could be relevant. The Blob Storage is properly configured for optimal performance. This includes setting the correct access tier (Hot, Cool, or Archive) based on your usage patterns.

    For better performance, especially in important work environments, it is highly recommended to use Azure Premium Storage or Azure Ultra Disk. These storage types provide better IOPS, which can help mitigate performance issues when accessing files. These types of storage offer faster speed and better data transfer, which can make attaching files smoother. Also, make sure that the Azure VM type you're using can handle the storage performance needed.

    It is better to check the network configuration and confirm that there is any configuration affecting the connection to the blob storage.
