using AzureFileCopy task outputs in Azure-Pipelines.yml

I am trying to output outputStorageUri and outputStorageContainerSasToken from the AzureFileCopy task and consume them in a powershell script, a simple example of what I am trying to achieve is:

pool:
  vmImage: 'VS2017-Win2016'

variables:
  Parameters.outputStorageUri: ''
  Parameters.outputStorageContainerSasToken: ''

steps:

- task: AzureFileCopy@3
  inputs:
    sourcePath: '$(Build.ArtifactStagingDirectory)\MyProgram.ext'
    azureSubscription: 'MyAzureServiceRole'
    Destination: 'AzureBlob'
    storage: 'myfilestorage'
    ContainerName: 'programs'
    outputStorageUri: '$(Parameters.outputStorageUri)'
    outputStorageContainerSasToken: '$(Parameters.outputStorageContainerSasToken)'
    sasTokenTimeOutInMinutes: 5
  displayName: Upload program to Blob storage


- task: PowerShell@2
  inputs:
      targetType: 'inline'
      script: |
          Write-Host 'URL = ' + $Env:PARAMETERS_OUTPUTSTORAGEURI
      errorActionPreference: 'stop'
      failOnStderr: 'false'
  displayName: Send storage URL to Logger(s)

The file is copied correctly, however Write-Host in the example for the outputStorageUri is always blank! I have also tried a number of other ways to no avail... Please can someone enlighten me as to what I am doing wrong...

Kind of related but if you are using V4 then these are available as Output Variables. This is not there in the documentation but highlighted in this issue.

We should use the name of the variable, not the variable value in the task.

Please change the $(Parameters.outputStorageUri) to Parameters.outputStorageUri $(Parameters.outputStorageContainerSasToken) to Parameters.outputStorageContainerSasToken, then it will work.

outputStorageUri: Parameters.outputStorageUri
outputStorageContainerSasToken: Parameters.outputStorageContainerSasToken

enter image description here

For more information please refer to Azure File Copy

provide the name of the output variable you would like to use.
