'Install for Azure Storage Explorer on Mac (Catalina) is not working

I am trying to install the Azure Storage Explorer on my Mac (MacOS Catalina, Version 10.15.1). As per this documentation (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/vs-azure-tools-storage-manage-with-storage-explorer?tabs=macos#prerequisites), this seems to be supported.

However, after downloading (v.1.11.1), I got this error message:

"Microsoft Azure Storage Explorer" can't be opened because Apple cannot check it for malicious software.

This software needs to be updated. Contact the developer for more information."

I believe this issue is coming because of notarization restriction Apple has put on new Mac apps.

Best place to raise this issue on the Azure Storage Explorer Github: https://github.com/Microsoft/AzureStorageExplorer/issues.
