I have a pick list in Azure table storage of [symbol, weight, date]. Can I access it on QuantConnect? I don't require QuantConnect logic to do anything other than trade on IB and backtest.
Thanks

Hi Stephan,
If your table is accessible by a URL, you can get it with QCAlgorithm.Download() (self.Download()). Make sure your URL gets you only the table, like in CSV format, and not a whole HTML/CSS/etc page or you'll then need additional code to parse the HTML to extract the table before using it.

ok so Azure api's and SaS tokens aren't implemented in QuantConnect.Â
So I could use my Google drive and update a csv there, then access from QuantConnect.Â

Perfect. Yeah. You can use headers with Download() to maybe perform some basic authentication, if desired, but nothing too complex easily. I have not checked lately but I don't think Download() handles sessions and cookies.
