Synopsis

Only Blob containers are supported in the current release.

azcopy list [containerURL] [flags]

Examples

azcopy list [containerURL] --properties [semicolon(;) separated list of attributes (LastModifiedTime, VersionId, BlobType, BlobAccessTier, ContentType, ContentEncoding, LeaseState, LeaseDuration, LeaseStatus) enclosed in double quotes (")]

Options

-h, --help Help for list

--location Optionally specifies the location. For Example: Blob,File, BlobFS.

--machine-readable False by default. Lists file sizes in bytes.

--mega-units False by default. Displays units in orders of 1000, not 1024.

--properties Properties to be displayed in list output. Possible properties include: LastModifiedTime, VersionId, BlobType, BlobAccessTier, ContentType, ContentEncoding, ContentMD5, LeaseState, LeaseDuration, LeaseStatus, ArchiveStatus. Delimiter (;) should be used to separate multiple values of properties (For example: 'LastModifiedTime;VersionId;BlobType').

--running-tally False by default. Counts the total number of files and their sizes.

--trailing-dot Enabled by default to treat file share related operations in a safe manner. Available options: Enable, Disable. Choose Disable to go back to legacy (potentially unsafe) treatment of trailing dot files where the file service will trim any trailing dots in paths. This can result in potential data corruption if the transfer contains two paths that differ only by a trailing dot (For example mypath and mypath.). If this flag is set to Disable and AzCopy encounters a trailing dot file, it will warn customers in the scanning log but will not attempt to abort the operation. If the destination does not support trailing dot files (Windows or Blob Storage), AzCopy will fail if the trailing dot file is the root of the transfer and skip any trailing dot paths encountered during enumeration.

Options inherited from parent commands

--cap-mbps (float) Caps the transfer rate, in megabits per second. Moment-by-moment throughput might vary slightly from the cap. If this option is set to zero, or it's omitted, the throughput isn't capped.

--output-type (string) Format of the command's output. The choices include: text, json. The default value is 'text'. (default "text")

--trusted-microsoft-suffixes (string) Specifies additional domain suffixes where Microsoft Entra login tokens may be sent. The default is '.core.windows.net;.core.chinacloudapi.cn;.core.cloudapi.de;.core.usgovcloudapi.net;*.storage.azure.net'. Any listed here are added to the default. For security, you should only put Azure domains here. Separate multiple entries with semi-colons.
