Azure Table Storage as Sink in Data Factory Row Key

Question

I want to pass a value for the row key as a parameter just like the partition key. But the UI only gives me an option to use unique identifier or a source column. Actually I need to use this same entity somewhere else. How will I query this entity if the row key is going to be a random value?

Answer 1

Based on the official statement , partition key can be set custom value yet row key only could be set column name from source or GUID default value.

I think it's because of guaranteed uniqueness constraint restrictions. So, if you want to control row key value , you could add row key into your source data.

Hope it helps you.
