# Blob SAS URL

The easiest way to access a WIM for OSDCloud is to create a SAS Token and URL.  This will append the URL of the WIM file with a Token and allow the download the Windows Image without assigning specific permissions

If you are using a Blob SAS URL then you can use this with Start-OSDCloud, but this method is not recommended as it is not easy to remember and must be written down, or saved in a file

```powershell
Start-OSDCloud -ImageFileUrl 'https://azosdcloud.blob.core.windows.net/images/en-us_windows_10_enterprise_ltsc_2021_x64.wim?sp=r&st=2022-05-10T08:04:24Z&se=2022-05-10T16:04:24Z&spr=https&sv=2020-08-04&sr=b&sig=YHVowsGk%2FhBGqFkkZ1vkQXmra9'
```
