Azure Storage Explorer - Filtering on Last Modified

Question

Apparently we can not sort the blobs easily if there are more than 1000 : you will need to "load more" until the complete list of blob appears and then you can sort them as you wish. Which is really not ideal.

So I want to apply a filter on the 'Last Modified' tag key. But I can't seem to be able to make it work.

I want to get all the blobs from 1st of June and later.

Here I have (at least) 2 blobs from 4th of June 2021 (the displays is set on the french format, but the timestamp shouldn't be impacted) :

But whatever filter I try I get nothing :

I tried different formats but none are working :

• Last Modified >= 2021-06-01
• Last Modified >= 01-06-2021
• Last Modified >= 01/06/2021

Any ideas on what's going on here ?

I believe the issue is that you're trying to filter by LastModified system property of the blob. You can also define tags for a blob and the screenshot you shared is for filtering of blobs based on the tag name/value specified for the blob.

To make the filtering work by tags, you will need to define tags for the blobs and then apply the filtering on those tag name/value.
