Azure Blob Storage
An Azure service that stores unstructured data in the cloud as blobs.
Hi,
There's no built-in capability to migrate from Premium BlockBlobStorage account to General Purpose v2 (StorageV2) account. To migrate you will first need to create the destination StorageV2 account, add Azure RBAC role assignments, configure account, and then use AzCopy to copy all the containers, directories, blobs over from the source to destination.
Once you have verified everything has copied over successfully you can delete the source account.
For example, below is sample command from AzCopy documentation to copy containers and blobs:
azcopy copy 'https://mysourceaccount.blob.core.windows.net/' 'https://mydestinationaccount.blob.core.windows.net' --recursive
Copy blobs between Azure storage accounts by using AzCopy

NOTE: You do not have to migrate your BlockBlobStorage account. It is NOT a legacy blob storage account and as such is unaffected by the October 2026 retirement deadline.
