ABS Copy

ABS Copy transfers a blob from one location to another. Because it takes a separate source and target connection, the two ends can be different storage accounts, not just different containers.

Move changes it from a copy to a move: the source is deleted once the transfer completes.

The activity has three tabs: Configuration, Input, and Output.
