@Veera-kambham - AzureFileCopyV6 is no longer supporting SASToken, please refer https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devops/pipelines/tasks/reference/azure-file-copy-v6?view=azure-pipelines

Use V5 to work with SASToken.

[Veera-kambham]

V5 doesn’t support for Federated Identity. Hence we have to use V6.
Please reopen the issue

@geekzter - Hi, Can you update on V6 and SASToken removal

[geekzter]

@Veera-kambham V6 of the task discourages the use of secrets and encourages the use of Azure RBAC, and therefore no longer generates & uses SAS tokens.
If you need a SAS token in a pipeline, you can create one in the AzureCLI@2 task with az storage account generate-sas or the AzurePowerShell@5 task with New-AzStorageContainerSASToken.
