Notating this because it's a top Google hit and the information is no longer current.

You can configure CloudStorageAccount via a connection string passed to FromConfigurationSetting().

You build a configuration string per below: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-gb/azure/storage/common/storage-configure-connection-string

There's also a helper in the IDE if you right click on the Role.
