DESCRIPTION

The Get-AzureStorageBlobContent cmdlet downloads the specified storage blob. If the blob name is not valid for the local computer, this cmdlet

automatically resolves it if it is possible.





PARAMETERS

-Blob <String>

Specifies the name of the blob to be downloaded.



Required? true

Position? 0

Default value None

Accept pipeline input? False

Accept wildcard characters? false



-CheckMd5 [<SwitchParameter>]

Specifies whether to check the Md5 sum for the downloaded file.



Required? false

Position? named

Default value False

Accept pipeline input? False

Accept wildcard characters? false



-ClientTimeoutPerRequest <Int32>

Specifies the client-side time-out interval, in seconds, for one service request. If the previous call fails in the specified interval, this

cmdlet retries the request. If this cmdlet does not receive a successful response before the interval elapses, this cmdlet returns an error.



Required? false

Position? named

Default value None

Accept pipeline input? False

Accept wildcard characters? false



-CloudBlob <CloudBlob>

Specifies a cloud blob. To obtain a CloudBlob object, use the Get-AzureStorageBlob cmdlet.



Required? true

Position? named

Default value None

Accept pipeline input? True (ByPropertyName)

Accept wildcard characters? false



-CloudBlobContainer <CloudBlobContainer>

Specifies a CloudBlobContainer object from the Azure storage client library. You can create it or use the Get-AzureStorageContainer cmdlet.



Required? true

Position? named

Default value None

Accept pipeline input? True (ByPropertyName)

Accept wildcard characters? false



-ConcurrentTaskCount <Int32>

Specifies the maximum concurrent network calls. You can use this parameter to limit the concurrency to throttle local CPU and bandwidth usage

by specifying the maximum number of concurrent network calls. The specified value is an absolute count and is not multiplied by the core

count. This parameter can help reduce network connection problems in low bandwidth environments, such as 100 kilobits per second. The default

value is 10.



The default value is 10.



Required? false

Position? named

Default value None

Accept pipeline input? False

Accept wildcard characters? false



-Container <String>

Specifies the name of container that has the blob you want to download.



Required? true

Position? 1

Default value None

Accept pipeline input? False

Accept wildcard characters? false



-Context <IStorageContext>

Specifies the Azure storage account from which you want to download blob content. You can use the New-AzureStorageContext cmdlet to create a

storage context.



Required? false

Position? named

Default value None

Accept pipeline input? True (ByPropertyName, ByValue)

Accept wildcard characters? false



-Destination <String>

Specifies the location to store the downloaded file.



Required? false

Position? named

Default value None

Accept pipeline input? False

Accept wildcard characters? false



-Force [<SwitchParameter>]

Overwrites an existing file without confirmation.



Required? false

Position? named

Default value False

Accept pipeline input? False

Accept wildcard characters? false



-ServerTimeoutPerRequest <Int32>

Specifies the service side time-out interval, in seconds, for a request. If the specified interval elapses before the service processes the

request, the storage service returns an error.



Required? false

Position? named

Default value None

Accept pipeline input? False

Shows what would happen if the cmdlet runs. The cmdlet is not run.



Required? false

Position? named

Default value False

Accept pipeline input? False

Accept wildcard characters? false



<CommonParameters>

This cmdlet supports the common parameters: Verbose, Debug,

ErrorAction, ErrorVariable, WarningAction, WarningVariable,

OutBuffer, PipelineVariable, and OutVariable. For more information, see

about_CommonParameters (http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=113216).



INPUTS

IStorageContext

Parameter 'Context' accepts value of type 'IStorageContext' from the pipeline





OUTPUTS

AzureStorageContainer







NOTES





* If the blob name is invalid for local computer, this cmdlet autoresolves it, if it is possible.



Example 1: Download blob content by name



PS C:\\>Get-AzureStorageBlobContent -Container "ContainerName" -Blob "Blob" -Destination "C:\\test\\"



This command downloads a blob by name.





Example 2: Download blob content using the pipeline



PS C:\\>Get-AzureStorageBlob -Container containername -Blob blobname | Get-AzureStorageBlobContent



This command uses the pipeline to find and download blob content.





Example 3: Download blob content using the pipeline and a wildcard character



PS C:\\>Get-AzureStorageContainer container* | Get-AzureStorageBlobContent -Blob "cbox.exe" -Destination "C:\\test"



This example uses the asterisk wildcard character and the pipeline to find and download blob content.
