On August 28th, 2024, Hardware Dev Center APIs will change the type of blob urls that are returned in various API calls from service sas urls to user delegated sas urls. Partners using HDC Hardware dashboard API to automate driver submission process may be affected. The specific area affected is the upload and downloads through the download links in the submission response. All other aspects of the submission process that can be accessed through the API are not affected. Partners are recommended to update to latest version of the libraries they use to upload and download from Azure Blobs during the driver submission process.

Partners using C# are encouraged to move to Azure.Storage.Blobs library to ensure that driver submissions are not interrupted. Any partner already managing blob interactions through Azure.Storage.Blobs library are not affected by this change. Please reference this documentation that covers how to upload to a blob with .NET: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/blobs/storage-blob-upload.
