ABSCopy (Deprecated)

Description

Copies all the blobs in an ABS container to another.

• Ensure that you have properly configured Azure Blob Storage (ABS) connection source and destination resources set up under the Resources folder.

• ABS file names are case-sensitive; therefore, abc.JPG, abc.jpg, and ABC.jpg will be saved as different files. To ensure consistency, we recommend using lower-case file names and extensions: abc.jpg.

Configuration

Field	Required	Description	Example
Name	Required	The name of the activity. This name must be unique in a workflow.	Copy Staging Images to Production
Description	Optional	The description of the activity. We recommend you make this as clear as possible to guide execution, foster understanding, and support collaboration.	Copies images from the staging-files container to corresponding virtual directories in the production-files container.
Source ABS Connection	Required	The predefined resource that you want to use to access the ABS blobs that you want to copy.	/Resources/ABS Resources/Source ABSConnection
Target ABS Connection	Required	The designated resource used for accessing the destination ABS Storage container.	/Resources/ABS Resources/Target ABSConnection
Source Container	Required	The name of the ABS container from which you want to copy blob files.	staging-files
Target Container	Required	The name of the ABS container to which you want to copy blob files.	production-files
Source Path	Required	The location of the virtual directory that contains the blobs that you want to copy. Note While entering the path, only include the virtual directories without adding the container name, because the container name is already specified.	For example, consider the following complete path: production-files/web-content/media/images In this complete path: production-files is the blob container. images is the virtual directory that contains the blob you want to update. web-content/media/images is the path to the blob.
Target Path	Required	The location of the virtual directory into which you want to copy blob files from the source container. Note While entering the path, only include the virtual directories without adding the container name, because the container name is already specified.	See example above. In this instance, the target path is web-content/media/images, because we want the Staging and Production environments to have the same folder structure.
Move	Optional	Instructs the application to move blobs instead of copying them.	NA
