How Azure Blob / Datalake Pull to SES Email routing works
Source
Azure Blob / Datalake
DocEvent checks a folder in your Azure Blob storage or Datalake (ADLS Gen2) on a schedule and collects new files.

1
File arrives via Azure Blob / Datalake Pull
Scheduled polling of an Azure Datalake Storage Gen2 filesystem — the hierarchical namespace on Azure Blob Storage — using the storage account name and access key. Collects from a directory with filename pattern filtering and completed-file detection, then each collected file is deleted or moved to an archive folder.
2
Channel routes it
DocEvent's channel server matches the incoming file to your configured route, queues it for delivery, and ensures no file is ever lost — even during downstream outages.
3
Delivered to SES Email
Amazon SES with configurable sender, recipient, subject, and body. Attachment included.
Common use cases
Real workflows that teams automate with a Azure Blob / Datalake Pull → SES Email channel.
- Email reports the moment they land in the Datalake
- Forward partner files from an ADLS drop directory to a shared mailbox
- Turn an Azure storage directory into an email distribution point
- Notify recipients with the actual file attached, not just an alert
The two ends don't have to be the same company — invite a customer or trading partner into the channel and they run the Azure Blob / Datalake Pull or SES Email side under their own account, with their own credentials. Learn how shared channels work.
