## Examples

::: example
### Example 1. Getting All Folders from Microsoft Azure Blob Storage

This example shows how to get all folders from Microsoft Azure Blob storage.

```
$account = Get-VBRAzureBlobAccount -Name "Microsoft Azure Blob"
$connect = Connect-VBRAzureBlobService -Account $account -RegionType Global -ServiceType CapacityTier
$container = Get-VBRAzureBlobContainer -Connection $connect
Get-VBRAzureBlobFolder -Container $Container -Connection $connect
```

Perform the following steps:

1. Run the [`Get-VBRAzureBlobAccount`](get-vbrazureblobaccount.md) cmdlet. Specify the `Name` parameter value. Save the result to the `$account` variable.
2. Run the [`Connect-VBRAzureBlobService`](connect-vbrazureblobservice.md) cmdlet. Set the `$account` variable as the `Account` parameter value. Specify the `RegionType` and the `ServiceType` parameter values. Save the result to the `$connect` variable.
3. Run the [`Get-VBRAzureBlobContainer`](get-vbrazureblobcontainer.md) cmdlet. Set the `$connect` variable as the `Connection` parameter value. Save the result to the `$container` variable.
4. Run the `Get-VBRAzureBlobFolder` cmdlet. Set the `$container` variable as the `Container` parameter value. Set the `$connect` variable as the `Connection` parameter value.
