Azure Azcopy for Mac Cannot Upload

Question

I tried to upload a directory with this command on Mac but could not work.

./azcopy copy ‘/folder1’ ‘https://company.blob.core.windows.net/SAStoken’ --recursive

What I get in return is this. What is going on here? Thank you.

Can you try with --recursive=true? Something like ./azcopy copy ‘/folder1’ ‘https://company.blob.core.windows.net/SAStoken’ --recursive=true — Gaurav Mantri
Yes ! i did try that too but does not work as well. My AZCOPY executable is in the same folder as the folder that i want to upload (Folder A > azcopy + Folder B). I want to upload Folder B. do i just put "/FolderB" as filepath? — Mel

I see what the issue is :). Basically you would need to enclose your parameters in either single quote (') or double quotes (") however you are enclosing them in ‘ and that is causing the azcopy command to fail.

Please try something like the following:

./azcopy copy './folder1' 'https://account.blob.core.windows.net/container?sasToken' --recursive

This should work.
