Azure Storage Not Showing in Visual Studio 2015 Server Explorer

Question

I've installed Visual Studio 2015 and cloned a repo from my Visual Studio Online account. Originally the code was written with Visual Studio 2013 and with that environment I could see my Azure Storage Account (i.e. Tables, Queues and Blobs) under the Azure connection section on the Server Explorer. However, with Visual Studio 2015 I can see the Azure connection section which includes App Service, Mobile Service, Notification Hubs and SQL Database but no Storage.

Any ideas?

I ran into the same problem. I decided to upgrade to the latest as of now Azure SDK 2.7. This fixed my server explorer panel and also added in a new panel called Cloud Explorer. This will hopefully get you going.
