Data Pipelines-Azure Blob event Storage Trigger-Specific folder and files

[AmruthaVarshini]

Hi Team,

We currently have a trigger set up to a particular pipeline and should be invoked only based on a blob/file arrival in a particular folder. Would you please provide an example on how a particular folder and file needs to be configured.

Took reference of Documentation: Data pipelines storage event triggers in Data Factory (Preview) - Microsoft Fabric | Microsoft Learn

But above way didn't worked out for us.It would be of great help if this issue is resolved.

Providing an example of how we tried : /blobServices/default/containers/<container-name>/blobs/<folder>/sub-folder>/

Hi @AmruthaVarshini ,

I think you can do the steps below.

1. Switch to the Edit tab in Data Factory or the Integrate tab in Azure Synapse Analytics.

2. On the menu, select Trigger, and then select New/Edit.

3. On the Add Triggers page, select Choose trigger, and then select + New.

4. Select the trigger type Storage events.

You can also read this two documents: Create event-based triggers - Azure Data Factory & Azure Synapse Analytics | Microsoft Learn and Pipeline execution and triggers - Azure Data Factory & Azure Synapse | Microsoft Learn
