Azure blob with object replication as an event grid source

Question

Is azure blob object replication creating blob storage events?

The use case is to replicate blobs between azure regions/subscriptions. When the blob arrives at the target storage account, Snowpipe should be notify via event grid and storage queue (as in here).

After setting object replication, event grid and queue, I can see files arriving, but no event seems to be generated. Only if I manually delete a blob or create one, events are pushed to queue. My first guess is that object replication is not creating event, but maybe there is another issue with this setup?

Yes, of course.

Have a look of this doc:

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/event-grid/event-schema-blob-storage?toc=/azure/storage/blobs/toc.json#list-of-events-for-blob-rest-apis

Triggered when a blob is created or replaced. Specifically, this event is triggered when clients use the PutBlob, PutBlockList, or CopyBlob operations that are available in the Blob REST API.

I use copy blob azure cli:

az storage blob copy start --destination-blob 1120.png --destination-container test1 --account-key Oczxxxxxx== --account-name 0730bowmanwindow --source-account-key Oczxxxxxx== --source-account-name 0730bowmanwindow --source-blob 1120.png --source-container test

And the Event grid get the event:

This is the filters on my side:
