Upload using Azure Storage Account Shared Access Signature (SAS) Authorization

See more Azure Cloud Storage Examples

Sample code to upload binary bytes to a block blob in Azure Cloud Storage using an Azure Storage Account Shared Access Signature (SAS) Authorization. This creates a block blob, or replaces an existing block blob.

Note: The maximum size of a block blob created by uploading in a single step is 64MB. For larger files, the upload must be broken up into blocks. There is another Chilkat example for that..

Note: This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.65 or later.

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

    ; IMPORTANT: Make sure to add the x-ms-date header.
