I think it's been using azcopy for a fair while now. Azcopy has improved dramatically over the last few years to have more switches and options. I recently used it to bulk copy a container in one storage account to another, then bulk upload all files with certain extensions (which wasn't originally possible). In each case it was harder than refining fissionable uranium, so I pasted the skeletons of the working commands into my "bag of tricks" text file. The Blazor bulk upload is mercifully on hold while they reconsider who should have the facility -- *Greg K*
