+===========================================
+Attachments on Microsoft Azure Blob Storage
+===========================================
+
+This addon allows to store the attachments (documents and assets) on `Microsoft Azure
+Blob Storage <https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/storage/blobs/>`_.
+
+Configuration
+-------------
+
+Activate Azure Blob storage:
+
+* Create or set the system parameter with the key ``ir_attachment.location``
+  and the value in the form ``azure``.
+
+Configure accesses with environment variables:
+
+* ``AZURE_STORAGE_CONNECTION_STRING`` or
+* ``AZURE_STORAGE_ACCOUNT_NAME``
+* ``AZURE_STORAGE_ACCOUNT_URL``
+* ``AZURE_STORAGE_ACCOUNT_KEY``
+
+One container will be created per database using the `RUNNING_ENV` environment variable
+and the name of the database. By default, `RUNNING_ENV` is set to `dev`.
+
+This addon must be added in the server wide addons with (``--load`` option):
+
+``--load=web,attachment_azure``
+
+The System Parameter ``ir_attachment.storage.force.database`` can be customized to
+force storage of files in the database. See the documentation of the module
+``base_attachment_object_storage``.
+
+Limitations
+-----------
+
+* You need to call ``env['ir.attachment'].force_storage()`` after
+  having changed the ``ir_attachment.location`` configuration in order to
+  migrate the existing attachments to Azure Blob Storage.
