Description

The Set-AzureStorageBlobContent cmdlet uploads a local file to an Azure Storage blob.

Examples

Example 1: Upload a named file

PS C:\>Set-AzureStorageBlobContent -Container "ContosoUpload" -File ".\PlanningData" -Blob "Planning2015"

This command uploads the file that is named PlanningData to a blob named Planning2015.

Example 2: Upload all files under the current folder

PS C:\>Get-ChildItem -File -Recurse | Set-AzureStorageBlobContent -Container "ContosoUploads"

This command uses the core Windows PowerShell cmdlet Get-ChildItem to get all the files in the current folder and in subfolders, and then passes them to the current cmdlet by using the pipeline operator. The Set-AzureStorageBlobContent cmdlet uploads the files to the container named ContosoUploads.

Example 3: Overwrite an existing blob

PS C:\>Get-AzureStorageBlob -Container "ContosoUploads" -Blob "Planning2015" | Set-AzureStorageBlobContent -File "ContosoPlanning"

This command gets the blob named Planning2015 in the ContosoUploads container by using the Get-AzureStorageBlob cmdlet, and then passes that blob to the current cmdlet. The command uploads the file that is named ContosoPlanning as Planning2015. This command does not specify the Force parameter. The command prompts you for confirmation. If you confirm the command, the cmdlet overwrites the existing blob.

Example 4: Upload a file to a container by using the pipeline

PS C:\>Get-AzureStorageContainer -Container "ContosoUpload*" | Set-AzureStorageBlobContent -File "ContosoPlanning" -Blob "Planning2015"

This command gets the container that starts with the string ContosoUpload by using the Get-AzureStorageContainer cmdlet, and then passes that blob to the current cmdlet. The command uploads the file that is named ContosoPlanning as Planning2015.

Example 5: Upload a file to page blob with metadata and PremiumPageBlobTier as P10

PS C:\>$Metadata = @{"key" = "value"; "name" = "test"}
PS C:\> Set-AzureStorageBlobContent -File "ContosoPlanning" -Container "ContosoUploads" -Metadata $Metadata -BlobType Page -PremiumPageBlobTier P10

The first command creates a hash table that contains metadata for a blob, and stores that hash table in the $Metadata variable. The second command uploads the file that is named ContosoPlanning to the container named ContosoUploads. The blob includes the metadata stored in $Metadata, and has PremiumPageBlobTier as P10.

Example 6: Upload a file to blob with specified blob properties

PS C:\> Set-AzureStorageBlobContent -File "ContosoPlanning" -Container "ContosoUploads" -Properties @{"ContentType" = "image/jpeg"; "ContentMD5" = "i727sP7HigloQDsqadNLHw=="}

This command uploads the file that is named ContosoPlanning to the container named ContosoUploads with specified blob properties.

Parameters

-Blob

Specifies the name of a blob. This cmdlet uploads a file to the Azure Storage blob that this parameter specifies.

Type:String
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False

-ClientTimeoutPerRequest

Specifies the client-side time-out interval, in seconds, for one service request. If the previous call fails in the specified interval, this cmdlet retries the request. If this cmdlet does not receive a successful response before the interval elapses, this cmdlet returns an error.

Type:Nullable<T>[Int32]
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-CloudBlob

Specifies a CloudBlob object. To obtain a CloudBlob object, use the Get-AzureStorageBlob cmdlet.

Specifies a CloudBlobContainer object from the Azure Storage Client library. This cmdlet uploads content to a blob in the container that this parameter specifies. To obtain a CloudBlobContainer object, use the Get-AzureStorageContainer cmdlet.

Type:CloudBlobContainer
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:True
Accept pipeline input:True
Accept wildcard characters:False

-ConcurrentTaskCount

Specifies the maximum concurrent network calls. You can use this parameter to limit the concurrency to throttle local CPU and bandwidth usage by specifying the maximum number of concurrent network calls. The specified value is an absolute count and is not multiplied by the core count.
