Common process to upload a file to the storage is to:
create new file
append content
flush data
I have a problem that storage contains the create file event, used by the databricks, and files are not “consumed” after the data flush.
Is it possible to create/upload a file together with the content? Like the upload file functionality on Azure Portal.
You can achieve your requirement using Azure logic Apps through When a blob is added or modified (properties only) (V2) trigger. Below is the flow of my logic app.
RESULT:
I'm trying to upload file to Azure storage from Postman using PUT Menthod.
REFERENCES:
Uploading files to Azure Blob Storage
It occurred that Flush operation has the close parameter, set as false by default.
When all data has been appended to the file, Flush should be performed with close set as true.
That will mean that file has been fully uploaded and the Storage account event will be triggered.

I have an ADF pipeline that process an excel file in azure blob storage. The excel file is actually downloaded from
Here and then manually uploaded on the azure blob storage.
I want to automate this process of downloading the excel from the link and then load it in the azure blob storage. Is there any way to do it using ADF or any other Azure Service
The non-code option that comes to mind is Logic apps.
Your Logic apps will look this. After the trigger you will need a HTTP action followed by a copy blob to copy that content into your storage account.
Your Create blob step will look like this. The blob content will be the response body of the previous http request.
You can have this scheduled at a regular interval.
I have many CSV file stored in Azure blob storage container, I need those file from azure blob storage and dump into azure event hub using azure logic app.
Scenarios:
If any new CSV file is added into the storage container only that new file should be fetched from the blob and pushed to the event hub.
If any old file is updated only those files and the newly added files should be fetched from the blob storage by using Azure Logic App.
Please refer to my logic app:
You can use When a blob is added or modified (properties only) as trigger.
Then use Get blob content to get content of your blob, within for each, you need to use send event.
The detail of send event 2:
We are uploading files into Azure data lake storage using Azure SDK for java. After uploading a file, Azure data factory needs to be triggered. BLOB CREATED trigger is added in a pipeline.
Main problem is after each file upload it gets triggered twice.
To upload a file into ADLS gen2, azure provides different SDK than conventional Blobstorage.
SDK uses package - azure-storage-file-datalake.
DataLakeFileSystemClient - to get container
DataLakeDirectoryClient.createFile - to create a file. //this call may be raising blob created event
DataLakeFileClient.uploadFromFile - to upload file //this call may also be raising blob created event
I think ADF trigger is not upgraded to capture Blob created event appropriately from ADLSGen2.
Any option to achieve this? There are restrictions in my org not to use Azure functions, otherwise Azure functions can be triggered based on Storage Queue message or Service bus message and ADF pipeline can be started using data factory REST API.
You could try Azure Logic Apps with a blob trigger and a data factory action:
Trigger: When a blob is added or modified (properties only):
This operation triggers a flow when one or more blobs are added or
modified in a container. This trigger will only fetch the file
metadata. To get the file content, you can use the "Get file content"
operation. The trigger does not fire if a file is added/updated in a
subfolder. If it is required to trigger on subfolders, multiple
triggers should be created.
Action: Get a pipeline run
Get a particular pipeline run execution
Hope this helps.
I need to use logic app to load some csv files in a files storage in Azure to a blob storage. what trigger to use in logic app to access the files storage in Azure? I have tried e.g. file systems but that seems works for windows file share. What i want to do is to check if there is a new file in the file storage then load it to the blob. I know there are other ways to achieve this but I am assigned the task of looking into the feasibility of doing this using logic app.
For now, since file storage connector now has no trigger like when a file is added or modified so you could not achieve your function. So maybe you could go to feedback and ask for Logic App help .
And now, you could only copy specified file to blob with Get file content using path and Create blob. Or you choose use Azure Function with timer trigger to move new file to blob.
If you still have other questions, please let me know.
I have an Azure web app that stores documents in Azure blob "container X".
Now, we want to run a "job" to generate specialized reports for these documents.
This includes running an EXE file that takes a document path as argument, letting it generate a report on the file system, and uploading this to Azure blob "container Y".
Like: generate-report.exe document.doc generates report.txt.
How can this be done? Do we need to download the blob to the web app, or is it possible to somehow refer to a blob as we refer to a physical disk file?
You cannot refer to a blob as a local file object, since blob storage does not implement any type of file I/O abstraction layer. Yes, you can use File Storage service, which implements SMB on top of blob storage, but this is different than working with individual blobs.
If your app is built to deal just with file objects, you'd need to copy it from blob storage to local disk first, then upload the results from local disk to blob storage.
If you're just building your app, you can directly access blob content via the REST API (or one of the various language-specific SDK's that wrap the API).
Reading file from the blob can be done in form of stream that can later be used to create the text file inside the web app also.
You can also create web jobs under web app to accomplish this task in backend.
