Currently when I download a blob from Azure Storage I'm calculating the MD5 hash of the file to ensure that the downloaded file isn't corrupt. I would prefer to use etag, how is the etag calculated for a blob?
Hi @arginite , I'm not quite sure how etag is calculated. I suggest you regard it as an opaque random string. Everytime the blob's content or metadata is changed, the etag changes.
