How can I copy files from Azure File storage to my local machine every 2 hours (periodically)?

Question

Please suggest the best way to I copy data from Azure File storage to local machines every 2 hours (periodically). Can we write a C# exe to do that and deploy it on the PC?

Answer 1

Write a desktop application in any language with the SDK support of Azure File Storage. Within that application, create a timer to do your download through the API.

If the there are configurable settings or user interactions needed, I'd say go for a desktop application.

Otherwise, and if your clients are windows PCs, best way would be to write a windows service that does the job.

Answer 2

您也许可以使用Azure Logic应用程序-例如，如果将作业设置为定期运行并将文件从文件存储复制到OneDrive，则OneDrive会将文件复制到本地服务器上。
