Filter images from azure

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Hello I wonder how can I filter images from Azure blob storage and display them into gallery based on a Startswith(TextInput.Text) action ?  I can manage to display all images in Azure blob, but i only want to display the images that starts with the text the user inserts into the textfield.

Thanks in advance

    What you are trying to do is implement search on the Blob storage, which doesn't really exist through the connector.

    You will need to use the ListFolderV2 action on the connector to get a list of the blobs and then filter that result to get the ID or the path of the actual blob that matches your startswith criteria.

    It's a few extra hoops to jump through, but it works.

     

    I hope this is helpful for you.

    I believe your StartsWith is backward.

    Filter(AzureBlobStorage.ListFolderV2("damages").value;StartsWith(Name; TextInput1.Text))
