Deleted storage container is still linked to routing endpoin in IoT Hub

Question

I am figuring out Azure IoT hub for the first time today i was having trouble with storage endpoints.

I had message routing setup to send device telemetry to a container storage, which didn't really work, or something was wrong so i decided to delete the storage container and endpoint and start over.

So i deleted the storage container, and then tried deleting the related endpoint in IoT Hub. But i wasn't able to because the container was already deleted.
I can't edit the endpoint (I think) to point to another container.

How would i fix this?

Hello @Oetze van den Broek ,

I tried to recreate your steps.

I created a storage account, I created an IoT Hub, I created an endpoint, I created a route.

Then, I created a device and ingested telemetry. The data arrived in the storage container (please wait for a few minutes because these are stored in batches).

Finally, I removed the storage account. Then I tried to remove the endpoint.

The works well, if it is not in use by any route:

That is the issue in my flow:

Was your endpoint still in use by a route?

Else, can you share the exception details?

Thanks for your help!

Deleting the storage account did resolve the issuee, only deleting the container in the storage account casused the initial problem.
