Solution

  • Unable to view storage details in Azure storage account: Total data stored, blob, and container counts not visible.

    In the storage browser, there is a line:

    The data provided is regularly updated about 2-4 times a day and published hourly. If your account has extremely large objects, it may be over a day between updates.

    It takes time to reflect or update the data in the storage browser panel.

    If you need to view storage details in Azure storage account: total data stored, blob, and container, you can follow the steps below:

    Portal -> storage account -> monitoring -> metrics -> scope=yourstorageaccount -> metric namespace= blob -> you can get the required fields like blob count, blob container count, capacity.

    The same applies to file share, table, and queue.

    Portal: enter image description here

    In the above image, it shows my blob container count.

    I have not tried any script yet. If anyone can share

    If you need a script, you can refer to this MS-document.
