| ## Configuring ABFS Access Token |
| |
| To configure access to your storage account, replace <storage-account> with the name of your account. This property aligns with Spark configurations. By setting this config multiple times using different storage account names, you can access multiple ABFS accounts. |
| |
| ```sh |
| spark.hadoop.fs.azure.account.key.<storage-account>.dfs.core.windows.net XXXXXXXXX |
| ``` |
| |
| ### Other authentatication methods are not yet supported. |

| # Local Caching support |
| |
| Velox supports a local cache when reading data from ABFS. Please refer [Velox Local Cache](VeloxLocalCache.md) part for more detailed configurations. |
