Get Metadata in Dataflow from Azure Blob

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by

Hi all!

 

I wanted to know if it's possible to get my metadata from Azure Blob Storage into my fields in the Common Data Service?

 

Right now I can pass some information along. When I go to "Get Data" and select "Azure Blob Storage," I am able to perform a Power Query that maps the following information into fields in my custom entity in CDS:

 

Date accessed; Date created; Date modified; Extension; Folder Path; Name

 

I added some metadata to the blobs in my Azure Blob Storage by going through the Azure portal and using the online storage explorer. When I click on blobs in the storage explorer I can see my metadata, but that metadata doesn't show up as able to be mapped to a field in CDS when I perform a Power Query. Anyone know how to fix this?

 

As a side note, I wanted to also know if there was a way to add metadata to multiple blobs in a container at once. Similar to how you can use the "quick edit" functionality in SharePoint to edit the fields of multiple items in a list at once.

 

Thank you!
