Hi All.

I have been asked to download data from an Azure account someone has given me details for. This is apparently easily done the using get\_blob() command from AzureBlob.jl. I managed to install the latter and run the former command (with the proper credentials) and received a header, indicating something had downloaded. However, I can’t find the data anywhere [just the header]?

There isn’t any documentation on the AzureBlob repo except command syntax. Has anyone actually gotten this working? Has anyone been able to locate any examples of how to use it?

Thanks for any help

You could also try AzStorage.jl. Here’s an example in the docs:
