Uploaded blob files are creating new folders

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 3

Hi,

 

I'm building a portal for users to be able to upload files to Azure BLOB storage via a basic form. This functionality currently works, however, each individual file that is uploaded is placed into their own newly-created folder once they're in blob storage, which I don't want.

Current result of uploaded files in blob storageCurrent result of uploaded files in blob storage

 

 

The desired result is to just have any and all uploaded files be stored at the root level of the storage container. Is this possible out-of-the-box somehow using settings in Portal Management? Or does this need to be done with custom Javascript or a Flow? It seems odd that each file is placed into its own folder with no way of choosing or naming the folder(s).

Desired resultDesired result

 

Thank you.

    What you want is not configurable.  You will probably find that the Folder is the GUID of the Notes record that the file would have been stored in in dataverse if not storing in blob.  The guid will be acting as a link between the blob and dataverse - if you change the structure etc you will probably find that you cannot access the files from dataverse or the portal later (unless you write your own .Net code to make it work differently).

     

    Edit:  You'll see on this web page a small file actually gets stored in the Note that points to the blob https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-apps/maker/portals/add-web-resource
