Azure Large Block Blob Upload with SAS and REST

Attempting to find an example of uploading a large block blob (and thus breaking into blocks with a finalization using the blocklist api) in Azure using the SAS token approach with the REST endpoint resulted in finding a Javascript example. I worked through the code and turned it into C#. The important parts are that you add the comp and blockid as Base64 encoded strings to the end of the SAS url; and finalize the upload by calling the comp endpoint with an xml section with all the blocks listed.

async Task Main()
{
	// Note: References Nuget Package RestSharp
	var azureSasTokenGetUrl = "";
	var maxBlockSize = 1024 * 1024 * 10; // 10MB block size	
	var fileToUpload = @"";
	var info = new FileInfo(fileToUpload);

	// custom URL for getting sas token accepted a file name value
	var client = new RestClient($"{azureSasTokenGetUrl}?name={info.Name}");
	var response = await client.GetAsync(new RestRequest());
	if (response.IsSuccessful)
	{
		// clean url of any quotes
		var sasUrl = response.Content.Replace("\"", string.Empty);
		Console.WriteLine($"SAS URL: {sasUrl}");

		var blobList = new List();
		var uploadSuccess = false;
		var fileLength = info.Length;
		var numberBlocks = (fileLength % maxBlockSize == 0) ? (int)(fileLength / maxBlockSize) : (int)Math.Floor((double)fileLength / maxBlockSize) + 1;
		client = new RestClient(sasUrl);
		using (var stream = File.OpenRead(fileToUpload))
		{
			for (var i = 0; i < numberBlocks; i++)
			{
				var readSize = (int)(i == (numberBlocks - 1) ? fileLength - (i * maxBlockSize) : maxBlockSize);
				var buffer = new byte[readSize];
				var blockId = Convert.ToBase64String(ASCIIEncoding.ASCII.GetBytes(i.ToString().PadLeft(6, '0')));
				var blockUrl = $"{sasUrl}&comp=block&blockid={blockId}";
				Console.WriteLine($"{i}: {i * maxBlockSize}, length {readSize}");
				blobList.Add(blockId);

				var content = await stream.ReadAsync(buffer, 0, readSize);
				var request = new RestRequest(blockUrl, Method.Put);
				request.AddBody(buffer);
				request.AddHeader("x-ms-blob-type", "BlockBlob");
				response = await client.PutAsync(request);
				uploadSuccess = response.IsSuccessful;
				if (!response.IsSuccessful)
					break;
			}
			stream.Close();
		}

		if (uploadSuccess)
		{
			var finalize = new RestRequest($"{sasUrl}&comp=blocklist");
			finalize.AddStringBody($"<BlockList>{string.Concat(blobList.Select(b => "<Latest>" + b + "</Latest>"))}</BlockList>", DataFormat.Xml);
			response = await client.PutAsync(finalize);
			Console.WriteLine($"Success: {response.IsSuccessful}");
		}
		else
			Console.WriteLine("FAILED");
	}
}
