Creating an Azure Function to Listen to Blob Created Events

## Scenario You need to process images uploaded to a blob container. You decide to create an Azure Function that is triggered by an Event Grid wired to blob-created events in the storage account. To test the concept, you create the function, configure the Event Grid subscription, and write the event data to the functions log. ## Prerequisites - Existing Resource Group - Existing App Service plan - Existing App Service - Existing Storage Account ## Log In to the Azure Portal Log in to the Azure Portal using your credentials ## Create the Event Grid-Triggered Function Open the menu in the top-left corner and select All resources.  Click on the app service.  In the left-hand pane, select the Functions row.  Click + New function.  Select the Azure Event Grid trigger box from the list.  Enter "MyEventGridTrigger" without quotes in the Name box.  Click Create. You should see the sample C# script (.csx). ```csharp #r "Microsoft.Azure.EventGrid" using Microsoft.Azure.EventGrid.Models; public static void Run(EventGridEvent eventGridEvent, ILogger log) { log.LogInformation(eventGridEvent.Data.ToString()); } ``` ## Create the Event Grid Subscription Click Add Event Grid subscription.
