You don't need a Resource ID to use Azure Storage or in Azure connection-strings. All you need is the account-name and one of your account keys - or a SAS signature. – Dai Jun 07 '21 at 05:53

...and the Account Name is in the hostname. – Dai Jun 07 '21 at 05:53

Using the connection string, it is not possible to get the resource id for a storage account. With connection string, you can perform data related operations on the storage account (also known as data plane operations). For resource id, you would need to perform management operation on the storage account (also known as control plane operations).
To get the resource id, you would need to use Storage Resource Provider REST API. The SDK you would want to use is Azure.ResourceManager.Storage.
However if you know the your Azure Subscription id, the name of the resource group where your storage account is and (obviously) the name of your storage account, you can construct the resource id using the following convention:
/subscriptions/{subscription-id}/resourceGroups/{resource-group-name}/providers/Microsoft.Storage/storageAccounts/{storage-account-name}

Actually, I wanted the subscription-id and resource group of that storage that's why I needed the resource id of the storage account. – Jay Dadhaniya Jun 07 '21 at 06:06

Aah...I would say you're out of luck in that case. Sorry! At the very least you would need the subscription id. Using the data plane APIs you will not be able to fetch this information unfortunatly. – Gaurav Mantri Jun 07 '21 at 06:12
