DESCRIPTION

The Remove-AzureStorageBlob cmdlet removes the specified blob from a storage account in Azure.





PARAMETERS

-Blob <String>

Specifies the name of the blob you want to remove.



Required? true

Position? 0

Default value None

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 use the Get-AzureStorageContainer cmdlet to get it.



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.



Required? false

Position? named

Default value None

Accept pipeline input? False

Accept wildcard characters? false



-Container <String>

Specifies the name of the container.



Required? true

Position? 1

Default value None

Accept pipeline input? False

Accept wildcard characters? false



-Context <IStorageContext>

Specifies the Azure storage context. You can use the New-AzureStorageContext cmdlet to create it.



Required? false

Position? named

Default value None

Accept pipeline input? True (ByPropertyName, ByValue)

Accept wildcard characters? false



-DeleteSnapshot [<SwitchParameter>]

Specifies that all snapshots be deleted, but not the base blob. If this parameter is not specified, the base blob and its snapshots are

deleted together. The user is prompted to confirm the delete operation.



Required? false

Position? named

Default value False

Accept pipeline input? False

Accept wildcard characters? false



-Force [<SwitchParameter>]

Indicates that this cmdlet removes the blob and its snapshot without confirmation.



Required? false

Position? named

Default value False

Accept pipeline input? False

Accept wildcard characters? false



-PassThru [<SwitchParameter>]

Indicates that this cmdlet returns a Boolean that reflects the success of the operation. By default, this cmdlet does not return a value.



Required? false

Position? named

Default value False

Accept pipeline input? False

Accept wildcard characters? false



-ServerTimeoutPerRequest <Int32>

Specifies the Azure profile for the cmdlet to read. If not specified, the cmdlet reads from the default profile.



Required? false

Position? named

Default value None

Accept pipeline input? False

Accept wildcard characters? false



-Confirm [<SwitchParameter>]

Prompts you for confirmation before running the cmdlet.



Required? false

Position? named

Default value False

Accept pipeline input? False

Accept wildcard characters? false



-WhatIf [<SwitchParameter>]

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

System.Boolean







NOTES









Example 1: Remove a storage blob by name



PS C:\\>Remove-AzureStorageBlob -Container "ContainerName" -Blob "BlobName"



This command removes a blob identified by its name.





Example 2: Remove a storage blob using the pipeline



PS C:\\>Get-AzureStorageBlob -Container "ContainerName" -Blob "BlobName" | Remove-AzureStorageBlob



This command uses the pipeline.





Example 3: Remove storage blobs using the pipeline



PS C:\\>Get-AzureStorageContainer -Container container* | Remove-AzureStorageBlob -Blob "BlobName"



This command uses the asterisk (*) wildcard character and the pipeline to retrieve the blob or blobs and then removes them.
