When storing a file in a dataverse table using a File data type column, how is it stored?
(E.g. Azure storage BLOB, SQL BLOB, etc.)
Hi @BrianJonatan,
The binary file itself is being stored behind the scenes in Azure Blob Storage. You won't have direct access to the storage account. You can use the Dataverse API to retrieve the file programmatically. More details documented here.
