Check whether your created storage accounts are Azure Data Lake storage accounts or Blob storage by using the Azure CLI script below:

az resource show --name <storageAccountName> --resource-group <resourceGroupName>  --resource-type "Microsoft.Storage/storageAccounts"  --query properties.isHnsEnabled

If the storage account is an Azure Data Lake storage account, you will get an output of "true" as shown below:

While creating an Azure storage account, enable Hierarchical Namespace as shown below:

This will create an Azure Data Lake storage account. The storage accounts will then be available in the Purview account, as shown below:
