I want to copy thousands of blob files from a container to another inside a python azure web app. The python azure-storage-blob library doesn't provide methods for batch copies. What is the fastest way to do it? I found blobxfer (an advanced data movement tool and library for Azure Storage Blob and Files) but no example of code using it!
the fastest way to move thousands of blob files from a container to another in python azure web app?

The fastest way would be using AzCopy, which you can call using Python too. Take a look on this previous question / answer:

Can it be run from inside Python Azure WebApp? – Gaurav Mantri Mar 25 '21 at 15:17

Yes, you can containerize an app and run it on Web App. https://github.com/Azure/azure-storage-azcopy/issues/423 – Thiago Custodio Mar 25 '21 at 15:30
