Copy files from azure web app to Azure Storage

Question

I have files in Azure Web App that I need to copy to a container in my Azure Storage Account.

I previously saved images in the website in a folder within the web-app. Now, I need to separate concern and store them in Azure storage account. I have managed to write code to store new images to the storage account. I need to copy the already existing files to the storage account. How do I achieve this?

Any insight to the solution is highly appreciated

Update:

If FTP is allowed. Download and upload images manually is also a method.(Just get the host name and the password is ok.)

Original Answer:

You can use the code like below:

var storageAccount = CloudStorageAccount.Parse("DefaultEndpointsProtocol=https;AccountName=xxxxxx");
            var myClient = storageAccount.CreateCloudBlobClient();
            var container = myClient.GetContainerReference("images");
            var blockBlob = container.GetBlockBlobReference("grass.jpg");
            blockBlob.UploadFromStreamAsync(xxx);
