Configure a Bridge with Azure Blob Storage

Last modified: September 15, 2026

Introduction

An Azure Blob Bridge is a one-way bridge that receives events via Azure object storage.

Configure Service

  1. Configure the service by filling out the following:

    • Event Broker Space – the space where the bridge will operate
    • Name – the name you want to call the bridge
    • Storage Account – the storage account to access
    • Storage SAS Token – the storage SAS Token
    • Container Path – the path of the container where the messages will be stored

  2. Click Next to connect events to your bridge.

Connect Events

To connect business events to Azure Blob Storage, follow these steps:

  1. Click Add Business Events to open a dialog box that displays all events managed by the Event Broker, including Mendix app-defined events and uploaded AsyncAPI events. Only events that can publish appear, as this bridge operates in one direction.

  2. Select the events to integrate and specify the prefix path for event storage.

  3. Click Next to proceed to the confirmation screen.

Editing Bridges

You can edit an Azure Blob Storage bridge to modify the configuration as your integration requirements evolve, without recreating it. For an Azure Blob Storage bridge, you can:

  • Add or remove Business Events
  • Update Storage Account, Storage SAS Token, Container Path, or Prefix Path

To edit a bridge:

  1. On the Event Broker Manager page, navigate to the Event Broker Bridges tab.

  2. Click the bridge you want to modify.

  3. Click Edit to enter editing mode. In editing mode, you can perform the following actions:

    • Add Business Events:

      1. Click Add Business Events to open a dialog box that displays available events.
      2. Select the events you want to add and click Select. Added events display an Added badge and can be removed before applying changes.

    • Remove Business Events:

      1. Navigate to the event you want to remove and click Remove. Removed events display a Removed badge, and their name and metadata appear grayed out.
      2. Re-add a removed event by clicking Add before applying changes.

    • Update Service Configuration:

      • Update the Storage Account, Storage SAS Token, Container Path, or Prefix Path as needed

  4. After you make your changes, you can:

    • Click Apply to save and apply the changes. A confirmation message indicates whether the changes were successful. Changes to the event configuration take effect when applied. After applying changes, the bridge status changes to Reconfiguring and returns to Running when reconfiguration is complete.
    • Click Cancel to exit editing mode without saving any changes.
