I've been there too - struggling with Node Fetch errors while trying to connect Azure Storage Explorer. It's frustrating, especially when you're in the middle of a project.
The good news is that there are solutions to these issues. Let's take a look at some of the common problems and their fixes.
One of the main causes of Node Fetch errors is an incorrect account name or key. Make sure to double-check your Azure Storage account credentials.
Incorrectly configured environment variables can also lead to connection issues. As an example, the article notes that setting the `AZURE_STORAGE_CONNECTION_STRING` environment variable to the correct value can resolve the problem.
Azure Storage Explorer requires the `fetch` module to be installed in your Node.js project. If it's not installed, you'll encounter errors.

Azure Storage Explorer Connection Issues
Azure Storage Explorer is a tool that allows you to view the contents of your Azure storage account. However, if you're experiencing connection issues, it's likely due to a configuration problem.

Using HTTPS is highly recommended for Azure Storage connections, but enabling it can sometimes cause issues with Storage Explorer. If you're using the Azurite emulator, you'll need to set it to use HTTPS for Storage Explorer to connect.
To fix the issue, try enabling the "System Proxy" setting in Storage Explorer. This setting is often overlooked, but it's a common solution to connection problems.
Azure Storage supports both HTTP and HTTPS in a connection string, but HTTPS is highly recommended. If you're using a connection string, make sure it's set to use HTTPS.
If you're using a shared access signature (SAS) URL, you can include it in your connection string to authenticate your request. Using HTTPS with a SAS is recommended as a best practice.
When specifying explicit service endpoints in your connection string, make sure to include the protocol specification (HTTPS or HTTP) for each service. This will help you avoid connection issues with Storage Explorer.

Configuring Azure Storage Account Connection

To resolve the node fetch error in Azure Storage Explorer, you need to configure your Azure storage account connection correctly. Use the following format to create a connection string for your Azure storage account: DefaultEndpointsProtocol=[http|https];AccountName=myAccountName;AccountKey=myAccountKey.
Azure Storage supports both HTTP and HTTPS in a connection string, but HTTPS is highly recommended. You can find your storage account's connection strings in the Azure portal by navigating to Security + networking > Access keys in your storage account's settings.
To create a connection string using a shared access signature, specify the SAS in the following format: [service endpoint]?[SAS]. Each service endpoint is optional, but the connection string must contain at least one. Using HTTPS with a SAS is recommended as a best practice.
Specifying explicit service endpoints in your connection string can be useful when you've mapped your Blob storage endpoint to a custom domain. To create a connection string that specifies an explicit endpoint, specify the complete service endpoint for each service, including the protocol specification (HTTPS or HTTP), in the following format: [service endpoint].

Service endpoint values in your connection strings must be well-formed URIs, including https:// (recommended) or http://. If you've mapped a storage endpoint to a custom domain and omit that endpoint from a connection string, then you will not be able to use that connection string to access data in that service from your code.

Explicit Storage Endpoint Connection
Explicit storage endpoint connection is a powerful feature that allows you to specify custom endpoints for your Azure Storage services.
You can create a connection string that specifies an explicit endpoint for each service, including the protocol specification (HTTPS or HTTP).
Specify the complete service endpoint for each service, including the protocol specification, in the format: protocol://service-name.service.azure.com.
For example, a connection string that specifies an explicit endpoint for the Blob service might look like this: https://storagesample.blob.core.windows.net.
Service endpoint values in your connection strings must be well-formed URIs, including https:// (recommended) or http://.

You can optionally specify the default endpoints for the other services if your application uses them.
If you've mapped a storage endpoint to a custom domain and omit that endpoint from a connection string, then you will not be able to use that connection string to access data in that service from your code.
