    Hello @ **Diksha Singh,

    Thank you for reaching out to Microsoft Q&A.

    In this scenario the correct answer is A – Yes, Logic Apps are one of the “trusted Microsoft services” that can bypass the storage account firewall when that setting is enabled.

    Why?

    • You’ve got DefaultAction=Deny, a VNet rule, an IP rule (xx.xx.xx.x/24), and you’ve turned on “Allow trusted Microsoft services.”

    • The documentation for “Trusted Azure services” shows that Azure Logic Apps (both the Microsoft.Logic/integrationAccounts and Microsoft.Logic/workflows resource providers) are explicitly on the list of services allowed to access storage accounts behind a firewall when trusted services is enabled.

    • Because of that, your Logic App – even though it’s coming over the internet from xx.xx.xx.x – is allowed through by the firewall. You don’t need to add its outbound IP to your IP rules.

    References:

    • Trusted Azure services: https://learn.microsoft.com/azure/storage/common/storage-network-security-trusted-azure-services

    • “Azure Logic Apps” entry under Trusted Azure services table in the above doc
