Upload string to Azure Blob

Question

I have had a look at this following link to upload a string to azure blob. my task requirement does not allow me to store the string as a file.

Is there any way of writing file to Azure Blob Storage directly from C# application?

It is using CloudStorageAccount in WindowsAzure.Storage which is deprecated already as per this link

I am trying to use Azure.Storage.Blobs library. HOwever, there's no longer UploadString method as per this microsoft documentation

any advices? thanks

You can upload a stream, so you can get the content of your string as a byte array, create a memory stream and upload it.

BlobContainerClient container = new BlobContainerClient(connectionString, "myContainer");
container.Create();

BlobClient blob = container.GetBlobClient("myString");

var myStr = "Hello!"
var content = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(myStr);
using(var ms = new MemoryStream(content))
    blob.Upload(ms);
