Allow setting custom headers (like cache-control) in file/folder upload window #792

Storage Explorer Version: 1.4.4 Platform/OS Version: Windows (1809) Architecture: ia32

I would like to set the cache-control header during file/folder uploads. Currently this is only doable through Azure CLI or by using the API. It would be great if this was also possible in Azure Storage Explorer.

Currently it's possible to set the cache-control header via file properties. But this is only after the upload is completed, and not possbile for multiple files at the same time.

Good Lord People. Five years now and you still can't set Cache-Control on an upload? Sigh... Can anybody suggest another GUI tool which supports this fundamental feature?

Aside 1: This shouldn't be considered a feature request. It's a bug. You go into the settings dialog, add a Cache-Control item and expect that its going to work. There's no indication that it's not supported.

Aside 2: In past years Cloudberry Explorer Pro supported this, but I'm unable to get it to work in version 6.6.1.5.
Which is how I wound up here.

Aside 3: Is this part of some grand conspiracy to force us into using a CDN? Should I contact the FTC?

Aside 4: Much later, and feeling a bit more rational. Just discovered that AzCopy has been updated to set Cache-Control and is blazingly fast!
