Using Azure Automation Account, Copy files from one Fileshare to another Fileshare across Storage

I am trying to copy one file (x) from a fileshare (y) of storage (z), to a fileshare (a) of storage (b).

$StorageAccountName = "z"
$StorageAccessKey = 
"md226fZvTKPKaCd9TxDGPn4mitCPfvBvgzElwoqIgpbf2Pe09GKKfNJlMcK2EXXqRLqOrhBslybaE1Cpz2BcPg=="
$context1=New-AzureStorageContext $StorageAccountName $StorageAccessKey

$DestStorageAccountName = "b"
$DestStorageAccessKey = "xZjU0r5g5fU+/ieAbwc22OmVtFY5BJdQuF8OZsFd7hGHYLzQFGg9ZCpsVnQi5u6Wi/nigb8jdupUGo0YaXBphg=="
$destcontext1=New-AzureStorageContext $DestStorageAccountName $DestStorageAccessKey
$SrcPath = "https://z.file.core.windows.net/y/x"
$SrcShare = "y"
$DestPath = "https://b.file.core.windows.net/a"
$DestShare = "a"
Start-AzureStorageFileCopy -SrcFilePath $SrcPath -SrcShareName $SrcShare -DestShareName $DestShare - 
DestFilePath $DestPath -Context $context1 -DestContext $destcontext1 -Force

It gives me error as below:

Start-AzStorageFileCopy: The given path/prefix 'https:' is not a valid name for a file or directory or does match the requirement for Microsoft Azure File Service REST API.

Thanks in Advance!

Please change the source and destination paths. In your particular scenario they should represent the path relative to the share.

$StorageAccountName = "z"
$StorageAccessKey = 
"md226fZvTKPKaCd9TxDGPn4mitCPfvBvgzElwoqIgpbf2Pe09GKKfNJlMcK2EXXqRLqOrhBslybaE1Cpz2BcPg=="
$context1=New-AzureStorageContext $StorageAccountName $StorageAccessKey

$DestStorageAccountName = "b"
$DestStorageAccessKey = "xZjU0r5g5fU+/ieAbwc22OmVtFY5BJdQuF8OZsFd7hGHYLzQFGg9ZCpsVnQi5u6Wi/nigb8jdupUGo0YaXBphg=="
$destcontext1=New-AzureStorageContext $DestStorageAccountName $DestStorageAccessKey
$SrcPath = "test.txt" #assuming the name of the source file is "test.txt"
$SrcShare = "y"
$DestPath = "test.txt" #assuming you want to copy the file and keep the same name
$DestShare = "a"
Start-AzureStorageFileCopy -SrcFilePath $SrcPath -SrcShareName $SrcShare -DestShareName $DestShare - 
DestFilePath $DestPath -Context $context1 -DestContext $destcontext1 -Force

From the documentation link:

-SrcFilePath Specifies the path of the source file relative to the source directory or source share.

-DestFilePath Specifies the path of the destination file relative to the destination share.
