This action is a wrapper for the Azure command line: az storage share delete. If you're having trouble using this action, or any of the Azure actions, please refer to the Azure command line reference.
The Delete Azure File Share action is a premium action that can be used to delete a file share on Azure.
See also the Create Azure File Share Action.
Tick this to log in or out using a service principal instead of a username and password. An Azure service principal is an identity created for use with applications, hosted services, and automated tools to access Azure resources. This access is restricted by the roles assigned to the service principal, giving you control over which resources can be accessed and at which level. For security reasons, it's always recommended to use service principals with automated tools rather than allowing them to log in with a user identity. [login --service-principal]
Enter a username to log into the Azure cloud. This is generally an email address. [login|logout --username]
The password associated with the Azure username. [login --username]
Enter the application name or the URL associated with the service principal. [login --service-principal --username]
Enter the service principal password, or the path to a X509 certificate used to create the service principal in PEM format. [login --service-principal --password]
Enter the tenant associated with the service principal, as either an .onmicrosoft.com domain or Azure object ID. [login --service-principal --tenant]
Tick to support automatic certificate rollovers with service principals configured with Subject Name and Issuer Authentication. [login --use-cert-sn-issuer]

This field is visible only if the Use Connection String checkbox is ticked.

If this is ticked, a shared access signature (SAS) token is used.
This field is visible only if the Use Shared Access Signature (SAS) token checkbox is ticked.
Enter a shared access signature token. A shared access signature (SAS) provides you with a way to grant limited access to objects in your storage account to other clients, without exposing your account key. This is used in conjunction with storage account name. [--sas-token]
The primary or secondary access key for your storage account. [--account-key]
You can get these keys into variables using the Get Azure Storage Account Keys Action.

Tick to continue build on failure marking the action with a warning status.
If this is ticked, any warnings logged will not mark the action with a warning status.
