using azure data factory to retrieve blobs urls from a container - azure-data-factory

Question

I'm using Azure, I have some blobs in a container, what I'm looking for is to copy the urls of these blobs in a json file using azure data factory or data flow.
heres as example of a url :
the expected result is :
[[{'ur':'urltObLOB1'},{'ur':'urltObLOB2'},{'ur':'urltObLOB3'},.....]
is there a way to achieve that using azure data factory or data flow please ?

Answer 1

I could not find an activity or out of the box method to achieve the ask. However if you look at the REST api
The List Blobs operation returns a list of the blobs under the specified container.
In version 2013-08-15 and newer, the EnumerationResults element
contains a ServiceEndpoint attribute specifying the blob endpoint, and
a ContainerName field specifying the name of the container. In
previous versions these two attributes were combined together in the
ContainerName field. Also in version 2013-08-15 and newer, the Url
element under Blob has been removed.
Checkout MS DOC List blobs and snapshots
An example shows the result of a listing operation that returns blobs and snapshots in a container named mycontainer.
The request URI is as follows:
GET https://myaccount.blob.core.windows.net/mycontainer?restype=container&comp=list&include=snapshots&include=metadata
Sample XML response contains a block for each blob in the container.
<Blob>
<Name>blob3.txt</Name>
<Url>https://myaccount.blob.core.windows.net/mycontainer/blob3.txt</Url>
<Properties>

</Properties>
<Metadata>
<Color>yellow</Color>
<BlobNumber>03</BlobNumber>
<SomeMetadataName>SomeMetadataValue</SomeMetadataName>
</Metadata>
</Blob>
You can find the blob URL between <Url> </Url>
Next you can parse the XML output to store the url values in an array variable in the pipeline.
