Repository for a sample module to manipulate Azure Storage Table rows/entities.
For more information, please visit the following blog post: https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/paulomarques/2017/01/17/working-with-azure-storage-tables-from-powershell/
This module supports Azure Storage Tables. Cosmos DB support was removed and it will have its own module.

Update-AzureStorageTableRow [-table] <AzureStorageTable> [-entity] <Object>
Updates a table entity. To work with this cmdlet, you need first retrieve an entity with one of the Get-AzureStorageTableRow cmdlets available and store in an object, change the necessary properties and then perform the update passing this modified entity back, through Pipeline or as argument. Notice that this cmdlet accepts only one entity per execution.

$table = Get-AzureStorageTable -Name $tableName -Context $saContext
