The following activity illustrates on how we can use the get container details activity to get the details inside a specific container. Here we are going to get the details from the container “azb”.

Example:

1.      Drag and drop an azure scope activity to the workflow

2.      Enter the account name and account key.

3.      Drag and drop the get container details activity within the Azure scope.

4.      Click on the activity.

5.      Enter a name of the container for which the details are required. Here it is azb

6.      Enter the declared variable in the output box of the output segment. Here it is Text

7.      Drag and drop a writelog activity below the azure scope.

8.      Enter the above declared variable in the input string of the write log activity and add.ToString to it as the writelog accepts only string values. E.g., Text(0).ToString (Refer tips)

9.      Enter the log level as “Info.”

10.   Execute the activity.
