Status of uploading file
Hi,
is it possible to get status of uploading file from blob storage?
I have a case when user A is uploading large file to storage via SAS to myContainer/uploadingBlob. My server has information that someone wants to upload there but there is no way to directly tell that user is actually uploading anything there. Is it possible to get that information from storage? What if user cancels the upload?

Azure Storage does not provide a direct mechanism to query whether a blob upload is currently in progress. To monitor activity, you should implement client-side progress reporting or leverage block blob APIs to inspect uncommitted blocks. For confirmation of completed uploads, configure Event Grid notifications to receive reliable events once the blob has been successfully committed.
