I'm trying to assign the role "Storage Blob Data Contributor (Preview)" to a specific storage container via arm template. But I just can't figure out the correct syntax. This is what I have: { "$schema": "https://schema.management.azure.com/schemas/2015-01-01/deploymentTemplate.json#", "contentVersion": "1.0.0.0", "parameters": { "principalId": { "type": "string", "metadata": { "description": "The principal to assign the role to" } }, "builtInRoleType": { "type": "string", "allowedValues": [ "Contributor", "Reader", "StorageBlobDataContributor" ], "metadata": { "description": "Built-in role to

Ok so i have the following code-- it works perfectly for storing jpgs, but does not store pdfs. Any idea why? public bool TryStoreImage(string uri, string fileName) { try { WebClient wc = new WebClient(); var blob = new BlobStorage().GetCloudBlobContainer(); var store = blob.GetBlobReference(fileName); store.UploadByteArray(wc.DownloadData(uri)); return true; } catch (Exception exc) { return false; } } ` Again, every pdf i try to access gives me "pdf does not exist," even though i can see the pdf in the azure management screen.

I have a web app that is hosted in Azure; one of it's functionalities is to be able to make a few cuts from the video(generate 2 or 3 small videos of 5-10 seconds from a larger video). The videos are persisted in Azure Blob Storage. How do you suggest to accomplish this in the Azure environment? The actual cutting of the videos will be initiated by a web job.

Assuming you have video-cutting code that operates on files through

I am using AppendBlob in Azure for logging. After some time I experienced 409 Conflict Error . My guess is the maximal amount of block/writes (50.000) was reached.

I am trying to serialize a DataTable to XML and then upload it to Azure blob storage. The below code works, but seems clunky and memory hungry. Is there a better way to do this? I'm especially referring to the fact that I am dumping a memory stream to a byte array and then creating a new memory stream from it. var container = blobClient.GetContainerReference("container"); var blockBlob = container.GetBlockBlobReference("blob"); byte[] blobBytes; using (var writeStream = new MemoryStream()) { using (var writer = new StreamWriter(writeStream)) { table.WriteXml(writer, XmlWriteMode.WriteSchema);

I am trying to use Azure Blob Storage as a location for secure file downloads using Shared Access Signature. Everything is working very well, however the problem I am having is I am trying to allow the user to save files from the browser and I have all browsers except IE9 working. Reviewing this question, What content type to force download of text response? this works well when I can control all of the headers, however in Azure Blob Storage, I have set the Content-Type to application/octet-stream and this allows all browsers except IE to ask the user to save the file, IE simply opens the file
