So now that V12 is released and it includes support, does anyone have screenshots of a list of checkboxes that should and should not be checked to make things work?

The documentation here: https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/backu ... ml?ver=120 mentions the following:
Azure Storage
You must configure immutability policies for blob versions and enable blob versioning for your storage account when you create a storage account.

For more information on enabling immutability for a container, see Microsoft Docs.

For more information on blob versioninig for a storage account, see Microsoft Docs.

IMPORTANT

When you create the storage account, by default the version-level immutability support option is enabled. You must disable it, otherwise immutability will not be applied for your Azure object storage. For more information, see Microsoft Docs.
If anyone has actually configured a new storage account and confirmed immutability works it would be nice to see screenshots of how the storage account was configured. I've just gotten approval for uploading to Azure so want to make sure I configure the account correctly.

Yes, this looks exactly like what I was looking for. I'll use it to test and confirm it works as expected.

Maybe this should be added to the helpcenter, or maybe a link within the helpcenter. I'm not sure how I would have found this otherwise.
