This request is not authorized to perform this operation. Azure blobClient

I have the following code to return a list of containers using the WindowsAzure.Storage nuget package:

public static class AzureBlobStorageClient
{
    public static CloudBlobClient GetClient(string AccountName = "foo", string AccountKey = "bar" )
    {
        try
        {

            var connectionString = $"DefaultEndpointsProtocol=https;AccountName={AccountName};AccountKey={AccountKey};EndpointSuffix=core.windows.net";
            CloudStorageAccount storageAccount = CloudStorageAccount.Parse(connectionString);
            CloudBlobClient blobClient = storageAccount.CreateCloudBlobClient();
            IRetryPolicy exponentialRetryPolicy = new ExponentialRetry(TimeSpan.FromSeconds(2), 10);
            blobClient.DefaultRequestOptions.RetryPolicy = exponentialRetryPolicy;
            return blobClient;
        }
        catch (StorageException ex)
        {
            Console.WriteLine("Error returned from the service: {0}", ex.Message);
            throw;
        }
    }

    public static void DeleteContainer(CloudBlobContainer container)
    {
        var result = container.DeleteIfExistsAsync().Result;
    }

    public static List<CloudBlobContainer> GetContainers()
    {
        var client = GetClient();
        BlobContinuationToken continuationToken = null;
        List<CloudBlobContainer> results = new List<CloudBlobContainer>();
        do
        {
            var response = client.ListContainersSegmentedAsync(continuationToken).Result;
            continuationToken = response.ContinuationToken;
            results.AddRange(response.Results);
        }
        while (continuationToken != null);

        return results;
    }

}

when i run this, i get the following error on client.ListContainersSegmentedAsync(continuationToken).Result :

System.AggregateException: 'One or more errors occurred. (This request is not authorized to perform this operation.)'

and I can't see how to set the authorization for the request.

My question is how to get past this error message

This looks like the user doesn't have permission to perform the action. Go to IAM and do the role assignment required to perform the action. I had similar situation of not able to create cobtainer in an SA. It worked after assigning contributer role to my login.

Please note that after enabling all or adding your ip addressed in to whitelist it will take around 1 minute to reflect the changes.

Thanks to @gaurav Mantri for this answer.

The issue was my client IP was not added to the firewall rules for the storage account.

To change this go to :

Storage accounts > {yourAccount} > Networking > Firewalls and Virtual networks

and add your IP address
