Note
The data can be written to blob storage in either the Apache Avro format, which is the default, or JSON.
The encoding format can be only set at the time the blob storage endpoint is configured. The format can't be changed for a previously configured endpoint. When using JSON encoding, you must set the contentType to JSON and the contentEncoding to UTF-8 in the message system properties.
For more detailed information about using a blob storage endpoint, see Azure Storage as a routing endpoint.
