## Example

<Steps>
  <Step>
   The flow starts by connecting to the `my-container` container in the Azure account `myaccount` using the access key provided in a variable. Read about [flow variables](/docs/integrations/ipaas-flow-variables) configuration.
  </Step>
  <Step>
   Then, it performs the `listBlobs` operation, listing the files (blobs) present in the container.
  </Step>
  <Step>
   For each file found:
  - Logs the name of the file read.
  - Converts the file content to String type for further processing.
  </Step>
</Steps>

```yaml
- from:
    uri: "azure-storage-blob:myaccount/my-container"
    parameters:
      accessKey: "{{access_key_stag}}"
      operation: "listBlobs"
    steps:
      - log:
          message: "Reading file from Azure: ${header.CamelAzureStorageBlobObjectName}"
      - convertBodyTo:
          type: java.lang.String
