    I am not very familiar with terraform but perhaps you could try combining the local-exec with azcopy. There is one answer on this Stack Overflow thread where it seems they were able to get this to work.

    Please try this out and see if it works for your use-case. If not you might try using azcopy or Storage Explorer directly to accomplish this.
