Unfortantely, you cannot use REST API be used in Azure Stream Analytics Job.

What is Azure Stream Analytics?

Azure Stream Analytics is a fully managed stream processing engine that is designed to analyze and process large volumes of streaming data with sub-millisecond latencies. You can build a streaming data pipeline using Stream Analytics to identity patterns and relationships in data that originates from various input sources including applications, devices, sensors, clickstreams, and social media feeds. Then, you can use these patterns to trigger actions and initiate workflows such as raising alerts, feeding information to a reporting tool, or storing transformed data for later use. Stream Analytics is also available on the Azure IoT Edge runtime, which enables you to process data directly from IoT devices.

Here are a few example scenarios where you can use Azure Stream Analytics:

• Anomaly detection in sensor data to detect spikes, dips, and slow positive and negative changes
• Geo-spatial analytics for fleet management and driverless vehicles
• Remote monitoring and predictive maintenance of high value assets
• Clickstream analytics to determine customer behavior
• Analyze real-time telemetry streams and logs from applications and IoT devices

Understand inputs for Azure Stream Analytics?

Azure Stream Analytics jobs connect to one or more data inputs. Each input defines a connection to an existing data source. Stream Analytics accepts data incoming from several kinds of event sources including Event Hubs, IoT Hub, and Blob storage. The inputs are referenced by name in the streaming SQL query that you write for each job. In the query, you can join multiple inputs to blend data or compare streaming data with a lookup to reference data, and pass the results to outputs.

Stream Analytics has first-class integration with four kinds of resources as inputs:

• Azure Event Hubs
• Azure IoT Hub
• Azure Blob storage
• Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2

These input resources can live in the same Azure subscription as your Stream Analytics job, or from a different subscription.

You can use the Azure portal, Azure PowerShell, .NET API, REST API, Visual Studio, and Visual Studio Code to create, edit, and test Stream Analytics job inputs.
