Issue with PowerShell script copying files between blob containers

Question

Hello team,

I am experiencing issues with a PowerShell script that copies files from one blob container to another. Specifically, I am trying to run this script from a function app. Can anyone assist me in resolving this issue?

Hello @sai pavan ,

Unfortunately, the script you mentioned is missing in your message. However, I am sharing the script I used to copy files from one blob container to another.

# Import the Azure PowerShell module
Import-Module Az

# Define the storage account and containers
$sourceStorageAccount = "your-source-storage-account"
$sourceContainer = "source-container"
$destinationStorageAccount = "your-destination-storage-account"
$destinationContainer = "destination-container"
$resourceGroup = "your-resource-group"

# Authenticate to Azure
Connect-AzAccount

# Retrieve the source and destination storage account keys
$sourceStorageKey = (Get-AzStorageAccountKey -ResourceGroupName $resourceGroup -Name $sourceStorageAccount).Value[0]
$destinationStorageKey = (Get-AzStorageAccountKey -ResourceGroupName $resourceGroup -Name $destinationStorageAccount).Value[0]

# Create storage context for source and destination
$sourceContext = New-AzStorageContext -StorageAccountName $sourceStorageAccount -StorageAccountKey $sourceStorageKey
$destinationContext = New-AzStorageContext -StorageAccountName $destinationStorageAccount -StorageAccountKey $destinationStorageKey

# List blobs in the source container
$blobs = Get-AzStorageBlob -Container $sourceContainer -Context $sourceContext

# Copy each blob to the destination container
foreach ($blob in $blobs) {
    $sourceUri = $blob.ICloudBlob.Uri.AbsoluteUri
    $destinationBlob = Start-AzStorageBlobCopy -AbsoluteUri $sourceUri -DestContainer $destinationContainer -DestContext $destinationContext

    Write-Output "Copying blob: $($blob.Name) to $($destinationContainer)"
}

Write-Output "Blob copy completed."

Don't forget to mark my reply as the answer if it resolves your issue.
