Blob Storage (1 / 24): As an Azure Developer working for a company named Contoso, your task involves managing the company's Azure storage account. The storage account contains numerous block blobs, all of which are tagged with specific metadata indicating the project they are associated with. For instance, some blobs are tagged as "Project: Contoso".
However, due to new privacy regulations, Contoso has decided to delete all blobs tagged with "Project: Contoso" as soon as possible after they have been uploaded to the storage. This is to ensure that sensitive data is not retained longer than necessary.
Your task is to create an Azure Storage lifecycle policy DeleteContosoData (as a JSON definition) to automate this process.
