I am developing an application where I need to copy file from Autodesk Construction Cloud to Azure Storage, Do AZCopy support it?
Below is Autodesk Construction Cloud API endpoint, I am getting oAuth Token and passing it with request where I am reading folder contents
var contentsEndpoint = $"https://developer.api.autodesk.com/data/v1/projects/{projectId}/folders/{folderID}/contents";
var request = new HttpRequestMessage(HttpMethod.Get, contentsEndpoint);
request.Headers.Authorization = new AuthenticationHeaderValue("Bearer", token);
var response = await _httpClient.SendAsync(request);
var responseString = await response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync();
JObject jsonObject = JObject.Parse(responseString);
JArray array2 = (JArray)jsonObject["data"];
foreach (var item in array2)
{
if (item["type"].ToString() == "items" && item["attributes"]["displayName"].ToString() == "signature.jpg")
{
//return file is present
}
}
We want to use AZ Copy to move it to Azure Storage. I knew that we can do it from on-premise to Azure Storage or from one account to another account. But will it work with ACC?

Can we use AZCopy to transfer files from Autodesk construction Cloud to Azure Storage?
According to this Document,
AzCopy is CLI tool specifically designed for transferring data to and from Azure Storage accounts, including Blob Storage, File Storage, and on-premise to Azure Storage.
However, AzCopy does not natively support third-party APIs or platforms like Autodesk Construction Cloud (ACC).
I would suggest that you can convert the data into stream from Autodesk Construction Cloud (ACC) and upload using Azure blob Storage SDK using C#.
Code:
var fileDownloadUrl = "Your file URL from the Autodesk Construction Cloud (ACC)";
using var fileResponse = await httpClient.GetAsync(fileDownloadUrl);
fileResponse.EnsureSuccessStatusCode();
using var fileStream = await fileResponse.Content.ReadAsStreamAsync();
string fileName = "signature.jpg"; // The name of the file to transfer
string azureBlobConnectionString = "your-azure-blob-connection-string";
string containerName = "your-container-name";
// Upload the file to Azure Blob Storage
var blobClient = new BlobClient(azureBlobConnectionString, containerName, fileName);
await blobClient.UploadAsync(fileStream, true);
