Using AzCopy to Migrate Local Files to Azure blob Storage

AzCopy is a command-line utility that you can use to copy blobs or files to or from a storage account. This article helps you download AzCopy, connect to your storage account, and then transfer data.

Download

First, download the AzCopy V10 executable file to any directory on your computer. AzCopy V10 is just an executable file, so there's nothing to install.

Run AzCopy

For convenience, consider adding the directory location of the AzCopy executable to your system path for ease of use. That way you can type azcopy from any directory on your system.

If you choose not to add the AzCopy directory to your path, you'll have to change directories to the location of your AzCopy executable and type azcopy or ./azcopy in Windows PowerShell command prompts.

You can provide authorization credentials by using Azure Active Directory (AD), or by using a Shared Access Signature (SAS) token.

Use this table as a guide:

Storage type Currently supported method of authorization
Blob storage Azure AD & SAS
Blob storage (hierarchical namespace) Azure AD & SAS
File storage SAS only

Option 1: Use Azure Active Directory

This option is available for blob Storage only. By using Azure Active Directory, you can provide credentials once instead of having to append a SAS token to each command.

Option 2: Use a SAS token

You can append a SAS token to each source or destination URL that use in your AzCopy commands.

This example command recursively copies data from a local directory to a blob container. A fictitious SAS token is appended to the end of the container URL.

AzCopy
azcopy copy "C:/local/path" "https://account.blob.core.windows.net/mycontainer1/?sv=2018-03-28&ss=bjqt&srt=sco&sp=rwddgcup&se=2019-05-01T05:01:17Z&st=2019-04-30T21:01:17Z&spr=https&sig=MGCXiyEzbtttkr3ewJIh2AR8KrghSy1DGM9ovN734bQF4%3D" --recursive=true

To learn more about SAS tokens and how to obtain one, see Using shared access signatures (SAS).

To see a list of commands, type azcopy -h and then press the ENTER key.

To learn about a specific command, just include the name of the command (For example: azcopy list -h).

Inline help

Use in Azure Storage Explorer

Storage Explorer uses AzCopy to perform all of its data transfer operations. You can use Storage Explorer if you want to leverage the performance advantages of AzCopy, but you prefer to use a graphical user interface rather than the command line to interact with your files.

Storage Explorer uses your account key to perform operations, so after you sign into Storage Explorer, you won't need to provide additional authorization credentials.

Create a user delegation SAS with PowerShell

About the user delegation SAS

A SAS token for access to a container or blob may be secured by using either Azure AD credentials or an account key. A SAS secured with Azure AD credentials is called a user delegation SAS, because the OAuth 2.0 token used to sign the SAS is requested on behalf of the user.

Microsoft recommends that you use Azure AD credentials when possible as a security best practice, rather than using the account key, which can be more easily compromised. When your application design requires shared access signatures, use Azure AD credentials to create a user delegation SAS for superior security. For more information about the user delegation SAS, see Create a user delegation SAS.

Install the PowerShell module

1 Uninstall any previous installations of Azure PowerShell:

    • Remove any previous installations of Azure PowerShell from Windows using the Apps & features setting under Settings.
    • Remove all Azure modules from %Program Files%/WindowsPowerShell/Modules.

    2 Make sure that you have the latest version of PowerShellGet installed. Open a Windows PowerShell window, and run the following command to install the latest version:

    3 Create Own Secret folder

    Install-Module PowerShellGet -Repository PSGallery -Force

    4 Close and reopen the PowerShell window after installing PowerShellGet.  Install the latest version of Azure PowerShell:

    Install-Module Az -Repository PSGallery -AllowClobber


    5 Run the following command to install the latest version of the Azure Storage PowerShell module:

    Install-Module -Name Az.Storage -Repository PSGallery -Force


    6 Close and reopen the PowerShell window. To check which version of the Az.Storage module is installed, run the following command:

    Get-Module -ListAvailable -Name Az.Storage -Refresh

    When you create a user delegation SAS with Azure PowerShell, the user delegation key that is used to sign the SAS is created for you implicitly. The start time and expiry time that you specify for the SAS are also used as the start time and expiry time for the user delegation key.

    Because the maximum interval over which the user delegation key is valid is 7 days from the start date, you should specify an expiry time for the SAS that is within 7 days of the start time. The SAS is invalid after the user delegation key expires, so a SAS with an expiry time of greater than 7 days will still only be valid for 7 days.

    To create a user delegation SAS for a container or blob with Azure PowerShell, first create a new Azure Storage context object, specifying the -UseConnectedAccount parameter. The -UseConnectedAccount parameter specifies that the command creates the context object under the Azure AD account with which you signed in.

    Remember to replace placeholder values in angle brackets with your own values:



    $ctx = New-AzStorageContext -StorageAccountName <storage-account> -UseConnectedAccount


    Example:
    $ctx = New-AzStorageContext -StorageAccountName fileshare4ca -UseConnectedAccount



    Create a user delegation SAS for a blob


    To return a user delegation SAS token for a blob, call the New-AzStorageBlobSASToken command, passing in the Azure Storage context object that you created previously.

    The following syntax returns a user delegation SAS for a blob. The example specifies the -FullUri parameter, which returns the blob URI with the SAS token appended. Remember to replace the placeholder values in brackets with your own values:


    New-AzStorageBlobSASToken -Context $ctx `
    -Container <container> `
    -Blob <blob> `
    -Permission racwd `
    -ExpiryTime <date-time>
    -FullUri

    The user delegation SAS URI returned will be similar to:

    Since J drive is network share drive, Azcopy tool does not support it well. But if you change source drive from network drive to local, the command will run well. All SMB permissions (NTFS ACL) will be copied over to remote Azure storage file share. 

    Generate AzCopy Command from Azure Storage Explorer

     

    Start an upload task, then you will find an option to "Copy AzCopy Command to Clipboard"

    It will looks like this:

    $env:AZCOPY_CRED_TYPE = "Anonymous";

    ./azcopy.exe copy "C:/test/1992/" "https://fileshare4ca.file.core.windows.net/fs2/?sv=2021-04-10&se=2022-09-08T13%3A43%3A24Z&sr=s&sp=rwl&sig=G16mpJRMeajshfjJHJHGH78384sjhfjYIUI%3D" --overwrite=prompt --from-to=LocalFile --follow-symlinks --put-md5 --follow-symlinks --preserve-smb-info=true --disable-auto-decoding=false --recursive --log-level=INFO;
