@azure/storage-blob (TypeScript/JavaScript)

SDK for Azure Blob Storage operations — upload, download, list, and manage blobs and containers.

Installation

npm install @azure/storage-blob @azure/identity

Examples use the 12.x API family. Pin compatible SDK versions and a currently supported Node runtime from the package engines; this is not a latest-version claim.

Environment Variables

AZURE_STORAGE_ACCOUNT_NAME=<account-name>
AZURE_STORAGE_ACCOUNT_KEY=<account-key>
# OR connection string
AZURE_STORAGE_CONNECTION_STRING=DefaultEndpointsProtocol=https;AccountName=...

Authentication

DefaultAzureCredential (Recommended)

import { BlobServiceClient } from "@azure/storage-blob";
import { DefaultAzureCredential } from "@azure/identity";

const accountName = process.env.AZURE_STORAGE_ACCOUNT_NAME!;
const client = new BlobServiceClient(
  `https://${accountName}.blob.core.windows.net`,
  new DefaultAzureCredential()
);

Connection String

import { BlobServiceClient } from "@azure/storage-blob";

const client = BlobServiceClient.fromConnectionString(
  process.env.AZURE_STORAGE_CONNECTION_STRING!
);

StorageSharedKeyCredential (Node.js only)

import { BlobServiceClient, StorageSharedKeyCredential } from "@azure/storage-blob";

const accountName = process.env.AZURE_STORAGE_ACCOUNT_NAME!;
const accountKey = process.env.AZURE_STORAGE_ACCOUNT_KEY!;

const sharedKeyCredential = new StorageSharedKeyCredential(accountName, accountKey);
const client = new BlobServiceClient(
  `https://${accountName}.blob.core.windows.net`,
  sharedKeyCredential
);

SAS Token

import { BlobServiceClient } from "@azure/storage-blob";

const accountName = process.env.AZURE_STORAGE_ACCOUNT_NAME!;
const sasToken = process.env.AZURE_STORAGE_SAS_TOKEN!; // starts with "?"

const client = new BlobServiceClient(
  `https://${accountName}.blob.core.windows.net${sasToken}`
);

Client Hierarchy

BlobServiceClient (account level)
└── ContainerClient (container level)
    └── BlobClient (blob level)
        ├── BlockBlobClient (block blobs - most common)
        ├── AppendBlobClient (append-only blobs)
        └── PageBlobClient (page blobs - VHDs)

Choose the least-privilege identity/SAS, short expiry and HTTPS-only access; prefer user-delegation SAS where supported. Never expose account keys or signed URLs in browser bundles/logs. Verify exact account/container/blob before deletes or overwrites. setMetadata/setHTTPHeaders replace fields: preserve required existing values and use conditional ETags where needed. These examples are separate actions, not a sequence to execute blindly.

Container Operations

Create Container

const containerClient = client.getContainerClient("my-container");
await containerClient.create();

// Or create if not exists
await containerClient.createIfNotExists();

List Containers

for await (const container of client.listContainers()) {
  console.log(container.name);
}

// With prefix filter
for await (const container of client.listContainers({ prefix: "logs-" })) {
  console.log(container.name);
}

Delete Container

await containerClient.delete();
// Or delete if exists
await containerClient.deleteIfExists();

Blob Operations

Upload Blob (Simple)

const containerClient = client.getContainerClient("my-container");
const blockBlobClient = containerClient.getBlockBlobClient("my-file.txt");

// Upload string
await blockBlobClient.upload("Hello, World!", 13);

// Upload Buffer
const buffer = Buffer.from("Hello, World!");
await blockBlobClient.upload(buffer, buffer.length);

Upload from File (Node.js only)

const blockBlobClient = containerClient.getBlockBlobClient("uploaded-file.txt");
await blockBlobClient.uploadFile("/path/to/local/file.txt");

Upload from Stream (Node.js only)

import * as fs from "fs";

const blockBlobClient = containerClient.getBlockBlobClient("streamed-file.txt");
const readStream = fs.createReadStream("/path/to/local/file.txt");

await blockBlobClient.uploadStream(readStream, 4 * 1024 * 1024, 5, {
  // bufferSize: 4MB, maxConcurrency: 5
  onProgress: (progress) => console.log(`Uploaded ${progress.loadedBytes} bytes`),
});

Upload from Browser

const blockBlobClient = containerClient.getBlockBlobClient("browser-upload.txt");

// From File input
const fileInput = document.getElementById("fileInput") as HTMLInputElement;
const file = fileInput.files![0];
await blockBlobClient.uploadData(file);

// From Blob/ArrayBuffer
const arrayBuffer = new ArrayBuffer(1024);
await blockBlobClient.uploadData(arrayBuffer);

Download Blob

const blobClient = containerClient.getBlobClient("my-file.txt");
const downloadResponse = await blobClient.download();

// Read as string (Node.js only; bounded small blobs)
const downloaded = await streamToText(downloadResponse.readableStreamBody!);

async function streamToText(readable: NodeJS.ReadableStream): Promise<string> {
  const chunks: Buffer[] = [];
  for await (const chunk of readable) {
    chunks.push(Buffer.from(chunk));
  }
  return Buffer.concat(chunks).toString("utf-8");
}

In a browser, use the response's blobBody Promise<Blob> and read its text within a size limit; readableStreamBody and Buffer are Node-specific.

Download to File (Node.js only)

const blockBlobClient = containerClient.getBlockBlobClient("my-file.txt");
await blockBlobClient.downloadToFile("/path/to/local/destination.txt");

Download to Buffer (Node.js only)

const blockBlobClient = containerClient.getBlockBlobClient("my-file.txt");
const buffer = await blockBlobClient.downloadToBuffer();
console.log(buffer.toString());

List Blobs

// List all blobs
for await (const blob of containerClient.listBlobsFlat()) {
  console.log(blob.name, blob.properties.contentLength);
}

// List with prefix
for await (const blob of containerClient.listBlobsFlat({ prefix: "logs/" })) {
  console.log(blob.name);
}

// List by hierarchy (virtual directories)
for await (const item of containerClient.listBlobsByHierarchy("/")) {
  if (item.kind === "prefix") {
    console.log(`Directory: ${item.name}`);
  } else {
    console.log(`Blob: ${item.name}`);
  }
}

Delete Blob

const blobClient = containerClient.getBlobClient("my-file.txt");
await blobClient.delete();

// Delete if exists
await blobClient.deleteIfExists();

// Delete with snapshots
await blobClient.delete({ deleteSnapshots: "include" });

Copy Blob

const sourceBlobClient = containerClient.getBlobClient("source.txt");
const destBlobClient = containerClient.getBlobClient("destination.txt");

// Start copy operation
const copyPoller = await destBlobClient.beginCopyFromURL(sourceBlobClient.url);
await copyPoller.pollUntilDone();

Blob Properties & Metadata

Get Properties

const blobClient = containerClient.getBlobClient("my-file.txt");
const properties = await blobClient.getProperties();

console.log("Content-Type:", properties.contentType);
console.log("Content-Length:", properties.contentLength);
console.log("Last Modified:", properties.lastModified);
console.log("ETag:", properties.etag);

Set Metadata

await blobClient.setMetadata({
  author: "John Doe",
  category: "documents",
});

Set HTTP Headers

await blobClient.setHTTPHeaders({
  blobContentType: "text/plain",
  blobCacheControl: "max-age=3600",
  blobContentDisposition: "attachment; filename=download.txt",
});

SAS Token Generation (Node.js only)

Generate Blob SAS

import {
  BlobSASPermissions,
  generateBlobSASQueryParameters,
  StorageSharedKeyCredential,
} from "@azure/storage-blob";

const sharedKeyCredential = new StorageSharedKeyCredential(accountName, accountKey);

const sasToken = generateBlobSASQueryParameters(
  {
    containerName: "my-container",
    blobName: "my-file.txt",
    permissions: BlobSASPermissions.parse("r"), // read only
    startsOn: new Date(),
    expiresOn: new Date(Date.now() + 3600 * 1000), // 1 hour
  },
  sharedKeyCredential
).toString();

const sasUrl = `https://${accountName}.blob.core.windows.net/my-container/my-file.txt?${sasToken}`;

Generate Container SAS

import { ContainerSASPermissions, generateBlobSASQueryParameters } from "@azure/storage-blob";

const sasToken = generateBlobSASQueryParameters(
  {
    containerName: "my-container",
    permissions: ContainerSASPermissions.parse("rl"), // read/list example; grant writes only when requested
    expiresOn: new Date(Date.now() + 24 * 3600 * 1000), // 24 hours
  },
  sharedKeyCredential
).toString();

Generate Account SAS

import {
  AccountSASPermissions,
  AccountSASResourceType
