How do I rename or copy a blob using Azure's Golang SDK?

Is there an API in the Azure SDK for Go that allows me to rename/copy blobs? I've seen CopyFromBlob() being called in overflow.com but it doesn't appears to exist in Azure SDK for Go.

I've seen the DownloadStream() and UploadStream() APIs but it appears that the blob is first downloaded from Azure cloud and uploaded back to the cloud. Are these the only APIs that supports rename/copy of blobs in Azure SDK for Go?

    Can you try StartCopyFromURL method to see if that helps. There is an example for the same as well
