The workflow/function (calling it like that as I do not know how) should be in Azure.

Modern A application can write to Azure not to shared directory

Legacy B application can read from shared directory not Azure

  1. A sends file to Azure
  2. Azure sends file to shared directory

Is 2. possible?

Update: I can use azcopy but I have to run it locally. Could I put this command into "something" in Azure that would run it at regular intervals?

Using Azure File Storage, application A can store the data on a storage account (which lives on Azure), and also, application B can mount a network drive pointing to Azure File Storage.

Application A can upload a file like this (assuming it's using c#):

Application B will mount like this:

Application B cannot do this, don't ask why :) The question is can Azure move the file to a network directory?
yes, but you`ll need to mount the network directory in a VM and also setup vpn to allow the communication between Azure and your on premises environment
