How does the integration between Azure Storage and Microsoft Files work in WEXTL?
WEXTL exposes actions and triggers for Azure Storage and Microsoft Files that help you connect apps and automate repetitive tasks [1]. A trigger is an event that happens, an action — a step that performs when the event has occurred.

Frequently asked questions
Common questions about connecting Azure Storage and Microsoft Files.
Connect your Azure Storage and Microsoft Files accounts once, pick a trigger in one app and an action in the other, then map the fields so data flows automatically between them. [3]
Example: when Microsoft Files's "Watch Drives" fires, WEXTL can "Copy Blob" in Azure Storage. Azure Storage has 15 actions (including Copy Blob, Create Container, and Delete Blob); Microsoft Files has 35 actions (including Activeate a File Container Storage, Add Bundle Item, and Copy a Drive Item). Add filters and transforms between steps when you need them. [1]
Yes — the integration works in both directions. Use each app's triggers to start a workflow and the other app's actions to update it. [2]
No. Azure Storage-to-Microsoft Files automations are built visually on the canvas. You can optionally add custom JavaScript with Functions when you need advanced logic. [4]
Yes. Trigger-based automations start the moment Azure Storage (or Microsoft Files) fires a new event — webhook-backed apps run within seconds, and polling-only apps re-check on a schedule you control. [7]
A first automation typically takes 5–10 minutes: connect each app's credential once, drop a trigger + action onto the canvas, map the fields, and turn the workflow on.
You can build your Azure Storage + Microsoft Files automation on a 3-day trial with every feature unlocked. Cancel anytime. For your protection, a small deposit is charged to your card when your trial starts. It counts toward your first payment and is non-refundable. [8]
