> The option 1 is better, right? Let's try the option 1. I thought so too but, after trying it, now I'm not so sure. I checked a few of the Azure SDKs (C++, Python, and golang) and it actually looks like none of them expose the [Copy Blob](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/storageservices/copy-blob?tabs=microsoft-entra-id) API. I found the `SourceAuthorization` option which should allow configuring different authentication to the source when using [Copy Blob From URL](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/storageservices/copy-blob-from-url?tabs=microsoft-entra-id). Plus some some [examples of how to use it in `azcopy`](https://github.com/Azure/azure-storage-azcopy/blob/ac9320275a2d5fcf590794c90489eee6a07458fd/ste/mgr-JobPartTransferMgr.go#L970-L987). There also seem to be a string of changes in `azcopy` to try to get this working correctly, because of problems like making too many token requests or using a cached token after it expired. The current implementation adds a custom http policy when creating the Azure client, which intercepts requests that include an empty `x-ms-copy-source-authorization` and populate it https://github.com/Azure/azure-storage-azcopy/blob/7f5ab059c28b09841d009d28b7510d4fcb167dc8/ste/sourceAuthPolicy.go#L47-L77. This is all looking rather complicated and I don't think we can generate the required bearer tokens with SAS or account key auth. So I think I'll stick with generating SAS tokens, and I think I will just bump their expiry a bit as a simple mitigation for the [problem mentioned in azcopy](https://github.com/Azure/azure-storage-azcopy/pull/2513) where tokens expired during retries. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
