Unable to resolve 'Microsoft.WindowsAzure.Storage (>= 7.2.0)' for '.NETCoreApp,Version=v1.0'

Question

I try to use Windows Azure Storage inside my dotnet core system (my first dotnet core project). I tried the unit test for Azure Storage with dotnet core and it builds well.

But when I try to include the dependency to Azure Storage in my project.json, I receive this message:

Unable to resolve 'Microsoft.WindowsAzure.Storage (>= 7.2.0)' for '.NETCoreApp,Version=v1.0'.

Here is my full project.json file

Our package is named WindowsAzure.Storage. Can you try that instead?
