Azure CLI Bash for windows platform
Hi All,
I am trying to copy blob data from one Azure Subscription to another Azure Subscription using Azure CLI Bash for windows.
I am able to set the below ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES successfully
Set AZURE_STORAGE_ACCOUNT=<YourStorageAccount>
Set AZURE_STORAGE_ACCESS_KEY=<YourStorageAccessKey>
Issue 1:
However, when I am trying to create a container in the Azure Storage account as specified in the AZURE_STORAGE_ACCOUNT unable to do so using below command
az storage container create --name nyctaxi-staging
Meanwhile, Below command able to create container successfully by explicitly mentioning Azure Storage Account Name as an option
az storage container create --name nyctaxi-staging --account-name <YourStorageAccount>
Issue2: Unable to access the ENVIRONMENT VARIABLE values. Tried different option but none of the options are working
- $AZURE_STORAGE_ACCOUNT
- ${AZURE_STORAGE_ACCOUNT}
- %AZURE_STORAGE_ACCOUNT%
Please suggest how to get this resolved. Thanks
Regards

- Hi, Vibhas. Did you get this sorted?
I recommend taking a look at AzCopy (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/common/storage-use-azcopy-v10?WT.mc_id=AZ-MVP-5004796)
Which will help you transfer data across and to an Azure storage account. Hello!
