On Windows and macOS, Storage Explorer supports URIs with the storageexplorer:// protocol. These URIs are referred to as direct links. A direct link points to an Azure Storage resource in Storage. Following a direct link will open Storage Explorer and navigate to the resource it points to. The direct link can be a good way to share the location of a particular resource to someone who has access to it.
The Azure App Configuration extension supports direct link with the following parameters.
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
v |

type |
The type of service the direct link is for. For Azure App Configuration store, this value will be appConfigStore. |
id |
The id of the user's Azure account. |
tenantId |
The tenant id of the user's Azure account. |
store |
The name of an Azure App Configuration store. |
serviceEndpoint |
The service endpoint of the Azure App Configuration store. |
resourceGroup |

Here is an example direct link to an Azure App Configuration store.
storageexplorer://?v=1&type=appConfigStore&id=<account_id>&tenantId=<tenant_id>&store=test-store&serviceEndpoint=https%3A%2F%2test-store.azconfig.io&resourceGroup=testResourceGroup
Open the context menu of an App Configuration store's node and click the "Copy Direct Link to App Configuration Store" action. It will construct a direct link to the store and copy the direct link to the clipboard.
