Is it possible to trigger an Azure Data Factory Pipeline when a file is deleted from BLOB storage

Question

I'm going to have a pipeline which selects data from an on prem sql server db, into csv file and then to Blob and then to Share Point (no ADF connector to SharePoint).

I don't want it running every 5mins on a schedule, sometimes it may run 20 times in a day and other times only 1 time in a week.

The users decide when they need to file created.

Is it possible for a user to manually trigger an Azure Data Factory Pipeline?
or other option
Is it possible to trigger an Azure Data Factory Pipeline when a user removes the current file from BLOB storage?

Trying to workout how best to do this...

Thanks,
J

Answer 1

You can try having Event based trigger which will trigger the pipeline as soon as blob/file is deleted from your storage account.

Refer the screenshot in step 7 in this document - https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/data-factory/how-to-create-event-trigger
