View Azure Blob Metadata Online

Is there a way to examine an Azure blob's metadata through a web interface or the Azure portal?

I'm running into a problem where I set metadata on a blob programmatically, without any problems, but when I go back to read the metadata in another section of the program there isn't any. So I'd like to confirm that the metadata was, in fact, written to the cloud.

One of the simplest ways to set/get an Azure Storage Blob's metadata is by using the cross-platform Microsoft Azure Storage Explorer, which is a standalone app from Microsoft that allows you to easily work with Azure Storage data on Windows, macOS and Linux.

Just right click on the blob you want to examine and select Properties, you will see the metadata list if they exist.

enter image description here

Note: Version tested - 0.8.7

There is no way to check this on the portal, however you can try the Storage Explorer tool.
