Is it possible to give Read Only access to a particular storage container without adding someone to Subscription and providing them the access key without anonymous request without going through SAS route

By default, a container and any blobs within it may be accessed only by the owner of the storage account. If you want to give anonymous users read permissions to a container and its blobs, you can set the container permissions to allow public access. Anonymous users can read blobs within a publicly accessible container without authenticating the request.

Thanks Frank! I have generated SAS on container level how can I use the SAS signature to copy the data.
