Python Azure Functions - Error when converting blobTrigger input binding to blob input binding

Question

I changed my Azure function from using a blobTrigger input to a blob input. This change causes my function to fail. Using the previous binding (blobTrigger), the code works.

Input Binding:

{
  "name": "inblob",
  "type": "blob",
  "direction": "in",
  "path": "pre-processed-session-data/{queueTrigger}",
  "connection": "kinetyxdev01_STORAGE"
},

Previous Trigger Input Binding (Code works with this binding):

{
  "name": "inblob",
  "type": "blobTrigger",
  "direction": "in",
  "path": "pre-processed-session-data/{queueTrigger}",
  "connection": "kinetyxdev01_STORAGE"
},

Main Method:

def main(myitem: func.QueueMessage, inblob: func.InputStream):
    logging.info(f"Python blob trigger function processed blob \n"
                 f"Name: {inblob.name}\n"
                 f"Type: {type(inblob)}\n"
                 f"Blob Size: {inblob.length} bytes")
    # read in zip file
    logging.info(f"read in zip file")
    blob_bytes = inblob.read()
    blob_to_read = BytesIO(blob_bytes)
    zf = zipfile.ZipFile(blob_to_read)

error message:

Does this answer your question? Bad magic number error with ZipFile module in Python — Tibebes. M

I think that further supports my theory that this is related to the missing meta data owing to the known azure I linked. — Omar

I print out the first 10 bytes of each input and they are identical: b'PK\x03\x04\x14\x00\x00\x00\x08\x00' I continue to believe this is related to the metadata and not the raw content inside the files. — Omar

Changing the datatype to binary on the input binding fixed this problem:

{
  "name": "inblob",
  "type": "blob",
  "direction": "in",
  "dataType": "binary",
  "path": "***",
  "connection": "***"
},
