Any forge plugin can get file from Azure storage - File Shares ?

Hi all,

I would like to ask is there any plugin for the Azure Storage - File Shares ? 

I have a company Azure account that has Blob Storage and File Shares, my application is to read and download from Blob storage and also download files from File Shares. I found a forge plugin to download files from Blob storage, but I don't find any plugin for File Shares.

Would you please suggest a way or any plugin for File Shares, thanks   

Jack

Hi Jack,

If there's no Forge asset for File Shares, you can consume the Azure REST service yourself.

Hi Kilian,

Thank you for your reply, would you mind sharing the Azure REST documentation link so I could follow the step to create the REST API

Many thanks~

Hi DaniĆ«l, 

Thank you for your finding, I have already tried all those plugins on forge but it only gets file inside Blob Container instead of FileShares

Thanks

What do you mean with FileShares, a specific clould file storage like OneDrive or Google Drive?

Hi DaniĆ«l, 

There are 4 types under the Azure Storage account, File Storage is one of the storage.


Following is my account under Azure Storage:


I can Read/Download all binary files in my Blob Container by Azure Blob plugin on Forge, but I cannot retrieve data(or file) from File Shares, I tested these plugins only return Blob Container information even I input the File Shares URL...

Nice information that would have stream lined the discussion if shared in your original question. The words  "FileShares" confused me.

You should be able to use https://www.outsystems.com/forge/component-overview/11749/microsoft-graph-api for this.
