Actions after a file is copied to a Azure Blob

As soon as the file is copied to connect direct and is persisted in a BLOB Object Store in Azure, customer needs to move/copy this file to another path/blob and/or delete this file directly from the cdp as a sysopt or some kind of task, but not using the Azure CLI due to authentication.

Once Connect:Direct sends a file to the BLOB it authenticate against the Azure, and to move/delete/copy/etc using CLI the CLI should authenticate again and there is no way to do that, so the authentication should be only at CD runtime copy.

    We are thinkin to add the following functions

    A copy function, from a bucket/object to a bucket/object; buckets can differ but must be accessible with the same credentials.
    A move function, from a bucket/object to a bucket/object; buckets can differ but must be accessible with the same credentials.
    A delete function.

    Does it solve the problem ? Do you need anything beyond in terms of functions ?

    Thanks,

    James

    Here at Banco Bradesco, we really need this feature. Currently, we incur costs performing this task via command line in another SaaS tool. Having this feature natively in the tool would reduce this cost for us. Note: Other file transfer tools already have this feature natively; it's strange that Connect:Direct doesn't have it yet.
