Azure Files linking to Azure AD

I've created an azure storage account and 3 shares, I can access these from a PC using access keys but I want to use Azure AD groups.
When I head into the storage account configuration and enable the "Identity-based access for file shares - Azure Active Directory Domain Services (Azure AD DS"

I get the following error. "failed to update storage account 'files'. Error the resource ----- does not exist?"

i'm not trying to link this to an on-prem. AD, all just on Azure.

Thanks
Dave

Hi Sumarigo, yes we have a tenant, we have PCs connected to this Azure AD, exchange, office 365 and some .net applications using azure authentication.
I have attached a screen shot of the error.

Many thanks
Dave

Hi
Yes. You also have to purchase an ADDS subscription on top of the file share subscription to be able to link ad to file share.

So I decided to build my own free version using ssh, tunnels on Linux.
