I’ve filled all the details for a new azure storage service in dreamfactory and when going to files tab, testing the azure connection, I get :  
This is happening on 2.1.0 and DreamFactory Version: 2.1.1 .

```
            Windows Azure Blob Service Exception:

```

I have tried with a new storage account on azure or a clasic storage account. I get the same output → the same critical error.

I tracked the error within the azure management by the error id. The x-ms-version seems it is still supported, but it’s not working at all.

`MissingOrIncorrectVersionHeader`  
The x-ms-version header value ‘2011-08-18’ is not one of the supported version headers.
