We are using the hot storage option. We could use Azure Storage Explorer to upload successfully, but via VC it failed. You advised that the component you use would needed to be updated.

EDIT

Possible bug. Clearing the Bucket / Container field in the Cloud Transfer - List items field and then clicking OK exits VC with the following:

System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

I see. No, in this case we are dependeding on a third party provider and they have not added support for this yet.

Hi,
I have an issue whereby a Web Macro runs fine in the foreground GUI (in 8.2.1), but when run as background task it hangs as running.
Has this been logged and has it been fixed?
