问题:

Can i update RowKey or PartitionKey properties of entity in Azure Table Storage?

I thought yes or maybe just PartitionKey but now i am trying to do that(try to change RowKey or PartitionKey) and get error:

The remote server returned an error: (404) Not Found.

             web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about

Line 143:
Line 144:                var updateOperation = TableOperation.Replace(entity);
Line 145:                _table.Execute(updateOperation);
Line 146:            }
Line 147:        }

My Code to update entity(short version):

var query = new TableQuery<CalculatorAccessTokenEntity>()
                .Where(TableQuery.GenerateFilterCondition("AccessUrl", 
                                                           QueryComparisons.Equal, url));

var newToken = GetUniqueKey(5);//get some random string of length 5
entity.PartitionKey = newToken;

// Try to use Merge here also but unsuccessful
var updateOperation = TableOperation.Replace(entity);    _table.Execute(updateOperation);

No, you can't update an entity's PartitionKey or RowKey. What you would need to do is perform 2 operations: first delete the entity with existing PartitionKey/RowKey and then insert new entity with new PartitionKey/RowKey.
