When you work with the global master setup, you have access to a handful of actions that help you create job queues and verify your Azure Blob Storage connection. Each action serves a specific purpose in getting your setup ready to run.
The Create Job Queue Entries action generates the job queue entries that match your company type. If the company is a subscriber, the action creates the job queue entries relevant for a subscriber. If the company is a master, it creates the entries for the master, and so on. The job queue entries are created on hold, so you can activate them yourself when you are ready.
The Show Blob Storage Files action lets you see the list of files currently stored in your Azure Blob Storage. This gives you a quick overview of what is already there.
To check your connection, use the Test Blob Storage Connection action. It uploads a test file to the blob storage so you can confirm that the connection is working and ready to use. Afterwards, you can try to download the test file to verify the connection in both directions. The final action deletes the test file from the blob storage, so you leave no leftover files behind.
Q&A
What does the Create Job Queue Entries action do?
It creates job queue entries that match the company type. A subscriber gets the entries relevant for a subscriber, a master gets the entries for the master, and so on. The entries are created on hold so you can activate them when you are ready.
How do I check whether my Azure Blob Storage connection works?
Use the Test Blob Storage Connection action. It uploads a test file to the blob storage so you can confirm the connection is ready. You can then download the test file to verify it works both ways, and a separate action deletes the test file afterwards.
How can I see which files are already in my Azure Blob Storage?
Use the Show Blob Storage Files action, which displays the list of files currently stored in your Azure Blob Storage.
