Not listing the files and folders inside the Azure file share.

You can use the script below to list both folder and file names using Azure PowerShell.

Script:

$resourceGroupName = "<Your-resource-grp name>"
$storageAccountName = "your-storage-account-name"
$fileShareName = "<Your-file-share-name>"
$directoryPath = "files/sample1"

$storageAccount = Get-AzStorageAccount -ResourceGroupName $resourceGroupName -Name $storageAccountName
$ctx = $storageAccount.Context

Function GetFiles 
{ 
    param (
        [string]$path
    )

    Write-Host -ForegroundColor Green "Lists directories and files under $path.."   
    $ctx = $storageAccount.Context

    $filesAndFolders = Get-AZStorageFile -Context $ctx -ShareName $fileShareName -Path $path |Get-AZStorageFile
    foreach($item in $filesAndFolders) 
    { 
        if ($item.GetType().Name -eq "AzureStorageFileDirectory")
        {
            Write-Host -ForegroundColor Red "Folder Name: " $item.Name 
        }
    }
    foreach($item in $filesAndFolders) 
    { 
        if ($item.GetType().Name -eq "AzureStorageFile")
        {
            Write-Host -ForegroundColor Yellow "File Name: " $item.Name 
        }
    }
} 

GetFiles -path $directoryPath

The script above lists all directories and files under a specified path in an Azure file share. It takes in the resource group name, storage account name, file share name, and directory path as parameters. The script retrieves the storage account context and uses the Get-AZStorageFile cmdlet to list the directories and files.

Output:

Lists directories and files under files/sample1..
Folder Name:  sample2
Folder Name:  sample3
File Name:  05-03-2024.html
File Name:  78089305.html
File Name:  78106201.html
