Read and write files in Azure Blob Storage. The Blob enumerator lists the blobs of a container, the Blob reader opens one as a file stream (one batch per blob, then delete, move or tag it), the Blob writer uploads text or a file stream or appends to an append blob, and Blob operation deletes, copies, moves, tags or changes the access tier of a blob.

Timer → Blob enumerator → Blob reader → CSV decoder → ... your logicThe reader emits the same file stream the local file plugins use, so every decoder works on blobs as it does on local files. Sign in with a connection string, Entra ID (managed identity, workload identity), a service principal or a SAS token.
Plugins
| Plugin | What it does | Pins |
|---|---|---|
| Blob enumerator | Lists the blobs of an Azure Storage container, optionally filtered by a name prefix and skipping blobs with a given index tag, and emits one file info record per blob. Use it with Blob reader to process the files of a container. | Input, Output, Continue |
| Blob operation | Deletes, copies, moves, tags or changes the access tier of a blob in Azure Storage. The blob comes from an incoming blob file info (Blob enumerator) or from the configuration; the file info of the resulting blob is passed on. Use it for housekeeping (archive or delete old blobs) or to move blobs between containers. | Input, Output, NoData |
| Blob reader | Opens a blob in Azure Storage for reading and emits it as a file stream, for example for a CSV or ASN.1 decoder. Every blob is a batch: once it is processed and committed downstream, the blob can be deleted, moved or tagged; a failed blob can be moved to an error location. The blob comes from an incoming blob file info (Blob enumerator) or from the configuration. If the blob does not exist, the input is passed to NoData. | Input, Output, NoData |
| Blob writer | Uploads text or a file stream to a blob in Azure Storage, or appends records to an append blob, and passes the input on. Sets content type, metadata and access tier, and can create the container. | Input, Output |
