How can I tell how full an Azure Storage account is?

Question

Is there any way of determining the used and/or remaining capacity of an Azure Storage account? I know that the current size limit is 100TB per storage account and I'm looking for either number of bytes used/remaining or, failing that, percentage used/remaining. However I can't see any way of monitoring this even in the Azure portal, let alone doing it programmatically via the API.

Answer 1

You have to enable Storage Analytics. Then read about Storage Account Monitoring. Finally a look at the Analytics Metrics table(s). Note that it takes minimum 15 minutes until metrics are updated.

And btw, Azure Storage account limit is 500 TB as per Azure Subscription and Service Limits.

UPDATE

After reconsidering, the only way you can get the full storage capacity report is via the Account Billing page. Simply click on your name on top right (management portal v.Current, a.k.a. https://manage.windowsazure.com/) then chose "View My Bill" option.

This page is updated on a daily basis.

There is no API or other programmatic way to get these statistics.

Answer 2

Now it's possible to get it in Azure Monitor. In Azure Portal navigate to All services -> Monitor, click Expore Metrics and select your storage account. There are different useful metrics and Capacity metric is among them.
