How to copy Files from Azure File share to Azure Blob using C#?

Answer 1

Finally got it working.

string rootFolder = "root";

string mainFolder = "MainFolder";

string fileshareName = "testfileshare";

string containerName = "container";

string connectionString = "Provide StorageConnectionString here";

CloudStorageAccount storageAccount = CloudStorageAccount.Parse(connectionString);
        CloudFileClient fileClient = storageAccount.CreateCloudFileClient();

        // Create a new file share, if it does not already exist.
        CloudFileShare share = fileClient.GetShareReference(fileshareName);
        share.CreateIfNotExists();

        // Create a new file in the root directory.

        CloudFileDirectory rootDir = share.GetRootDirectoryReference();

        CloudFileDirectory sampleDir = rootDir.GetDirectoryReference(rootFolder);


        CloudBlobClient blobClient = storageAccount.CreateCloudBlobClient();
        CloudBlobContainer container = blobClient.GetContainerReference(containerName.ToLower());
        container.CreateIfNotExists();

        foreach (var Files in sampleDir.ListFilesAndDirectories())
        {
            char strdelim = '/';
            string path = Files.Uri.ToString();
            var arr = Files.Uri.ToString().Split(strdelim);
            string strFileName = arr[arr.Length - 1];

            Console.WriteLine("\n" + strFileName);

            CloudFile sourceFile = sampleDir.GetFileReference(strFileName);

            string fileSas = sourceFile.GetSharedAccessSignature(new SharedAccessFilePolicy()
            {
                // Only read permissions are required for the source file.
                Permissions = SharedAccessFilePermissions.Read,
                SharedAccessExpiryTime = DateTime.UtcNow.AddHours(24)
            });

            Uri fileSasUri = new Uri(sourceFile.StorageUri.PrimaryUri.ToString() + fileSas);

            string blob = mainFolder + "\\" + strFileName;

            CloudBlockBlob blockBlob = container.GetBlockBlobReference(blob);

            blockBlob.StartCopy(fileSasUri);

        }
