Using Powershell:
# Log in to your Azure account Login-AzureRmAccount # List all the subscriptions associated to your account Get-AzureRmSubscription # Select a subscription Set-AzureRmContext -SubscriptionId "subscription id" # Azure powershell command to delete multiple files by passing the file names separated by comma in -Paths argument Remove-AzureRmDataLakeStoreItem -AccountName "trndls" -Paths "/myfolder/Doc1.Json","/myfolder/Doc2.Json" # Azure powershell command to delete all files inside the folder Remove-AzureRmDataLakeStoreItem -AccountName "trndls" -Paths /myfolder -Recurse -Clean -Force # - Recurse - deletes all items in the target folder, including subfolders. # Unless you specify the Clean parameter, the target folder is also deleted # - Clean - removes all of the contents of the target folder and retains the folder # - Force - to run without asking for user confirmation
Using Azure CLI:
