Azure Storage: Delete Blob

See more Azure Cloud Storage Examples

Demonstrates the Azure Delete Blob operation, which marks the specified blob for deletion. The blob is later deleted during garbage collection. C#

bool success = false;

// Azure Blob Service Example: Delete a particular blob in a specified container.
// See also: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/storageservices/delete-blob

// This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
// See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

Chilkat.Rest rest = new Chilkat.Rest();

// Connect to the Azure Storage Blob Service
bool bTls = true;
int port = 443;
bool bAutoReconnect = true;
// In this example, the storage account name is "chilkat".
success = rest.Connect("chilkat.blob.core.windows.net",port,bTls,bAutoReconnect);
if (success != true) {
    Debug.WriteLine(rest.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

// Provide Azure Cloud credentials for the REST call.
Chilkat.AuthAzureStorage azAuth = new Chilkat.AuthAzureStorage();
azAuth.AccessKey = "AZURE_ACCESS_KEY";
// The account name used here should match the 1st part of the domain passed in the call to Connect (above).
azAuth.Account = "chilkat";
azAuth.Scheme = "SharedKey";
azAuth.Service = "Blob";
// This causes the "x-ms-version: 2021-08-06" header to be automatically added.
azAuth.XMsVersion = "2021-08-06";
success = rest.SetAuthAzureStorage(azAuth);

// Note: The application does not need to explicitly set the following
// headers: x-ms-date, Authorization.  These headers
// are automatically set by Chilkat.

// A successful operation returns status code 202 (Accepted) with no response body.
// This example deletes the blob named "helloWorld.txt" located in "mycontainer"
string responseStr = rest.FullRequestNoBody("DELETE","/mycontainer/helloWorld.txt");
if (rest.LastMethodSuccess != true) {
    Debug.WriteLine(rest.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

if (rest.ResponseStatusCode != 202) {
    // Examine the request/response to see what happened.
    Debug.WriteLine("response status code = " + Convert.ToString(rest.ResponseStatusCode));
    Debug.WriteLine("response status text = " + rest.ResponseStatusText);
    Debug.WriteLine("response header: " + rest.ResponseHeader);
    Debug.WriteLine("response body (if any): " + responseStr);
    Debug.WriteLine("---");
    Debug.WriteLine("LastRequestStartLine: " + rest.LastRequestStartLine);
