[<CommonParameters>] Description
The Remove-AzStorageBlob cmdlet removes the specified blob from a storage account in Azure.
Examples
Example 1: Remove a storage blob by name
Remove-AzStorageBlob -Container "ContainerName" -Blob "BlobName"This command removes a blob identified by its name.
Example 2: Remove a storage blob using the pipeline
Get-AzStorageBlob -Container "ContainerName" -Blob "BlobName" | Remove-AzStorageBlobThis command uses the pipeline.
Example 3: Remove storage blobs using the pipeline
Get-AzStorageContainer -Container container* | Remove-AzStorageBlob -Blob "BlobName"This command uses the asterisk (*) wildcard character and the pipeline to retrieve the blob or blobs and then removes them.
Example 4: Remove a single blob version
Remove-AzStorageBlob -Container "containername" -Blob blob2 -VersionId "2020-07-03T16:19:16.2883167Z"This command removes a single blobs verion with VersionId.
Example 5: Remove a single blob snapshot
Remove-AzStorageBlob -Container "containername" -Blob blob1 -SnapshotTime "2020-07-06T06:56:06.8588431Z"This command removes a single blobs snapshot with SnapshotTime.
Parameters
-Blob
Specifies the name of the blob you want to remove.
| Type: | String |
| Position: | 0 |
| Default value: | None |
| Required: | True |
| Accept pipeline input: | False |
| Accept wildcard characters: | False |
-BlobBaseClient
BlobBaseClient Object
| Type: | BlobBaseClient |
| Position: | Named |
| Default value: | None |
| Required: | False |
| Accept pipeline input: | True |
| Accept wildcard characters: | 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] |
| Aliases: | ClientTimeoutPerRequestInSeconds |
| Position: | Named |
| Default value: | None |
| Required: | False |
| Accept pipeline input: | False |
| Accept wildcard characters: | False |
-CloudBlob
Specifies a cloud blob. To obtain a CloudBlob object, use the Get-AzStorageBlob cmdlet.
| Type: | CloudBlob |
| Aliases: | ICloudBlob |
| Position: | Named |
| Default value: | None |
| Required: | True |
| Accept pipeline input: | True |
| Accept wildcard characters: | False |
-CloudBlobContainer
Specifies a CloudBlobContainer object from the Azure Storage Client library. You can use the Get-AzStorageContainer cmdlet to get it.
| 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. This parameter can help reduce network connection problems in low bandwidth environments, such as 100 kilobits per second. The default value is 10.
| Type: | Nullable<T>[Int32] |
| Position: | Named |
| Default value: | None |
| Required: | False |
| Accept pipeline input: | False |
| Accept wildcard characters: | False |
-Confirm
Prompts you for confirmation before running the cmdlet.

| Accept wildcard characters: | False |
-Container
Specifies the name of the container.
| Type: | String |
| Position: | 1 |
| Default value: | None |
| Required: | True |
| Accept pipeline input: | False |
| Accept wildcard characters: | False |
-Context
Specifies the Azure storage context. You can use the New-AzStorageContext cmdlet to create it.
| Type: | IStorageContext |
| Position: | Named |
| Default value: | None |
| Required: | False |
| Accept pipeline input: | True |
| Accept wildcard characters: | False |
-DefaultProfile

| Default value: | None |
| Required: | False |
| Accept pipeline input: | False |
| Accept wildcard characters: | False |
