FileSharedAccessSignature Class

Provides a factory for creating file and share access signature tokens with a common account name and account key. Users can either use the factory or can construct the appropriate service and use the generate_*_shared_access_signature method directly.

Inheritance
FileSharedAccessSignature

Constructor

FileSharedAccessSignature(account_name, account_key)

Parameters

Name Description
account_name
Required
str

The storage account name used to generate the shared access signatures.

account_key
Required
str

The access key to generate the shares access signatures.

Methods

generate_file

Generates a shared access signature for the file. Use the returned signature with the sas_token parameter of FileService.

generate_share

Generates a shared access signature for the share. Use the returned signature with the sas_token parameter of FileService.

generate_file

Generates a shared access signature for the file. Use the returned signature with the sas_token parameter of FileService.

generate_file(share_name, directory_name=None, file_name=None, permission=None, expiry=None, start=None, id=None, ip=None, protocol=None, cache_control=None, content_disposition=None, content_encoding=None, content_language=None, content_type=None)

Parameters

Name Description
share_name
Required
str

Name of share.

directory_name
str

Name of directory. SAS tokens cannot be created for directories, so this parameter should only be present if file_name is provided.

default value: None
file_name
str

Name of file.

default value: None
permission

The permissions associated with the shared access signature. The user is restricted to operations allowed by the permissions. Permissions must be ordered read, create, write, delete, list. Required unless an id is given referencing a stored access policy which contains this field. This field must be omitted if it has been specified in an associated stored access policy.

default value: None
expiry

The time at which the shared access signature becomes invalid. Required unless an id is given referencing a stored access policy which contains this field. This field must be omitted if it has been specified in an associated stored access policy. Azure will always convert values to UTC. If a date is passed in without timezone info, it is assumed to be UTC.

default value: None
start

The time at which the shared access signature becomes valid. If omitted, start time for this call is assumed to be the time when the storage service receives the request. Azure will always convert values to UTC. If a date is passed in without timezone info, it is assumed to be UTC.

default value: None
id
str

A unique value up to 64 characters in length that correlates to a stored access policy. To create a stored access policy, use set_file_service_properties.

default value: None
ip
str

Specifies an IP address or a range of IP addresses from which to accept requests. If the IP address from which the request originates does not match the IP address or address range specified on the SAS token, the request is not authenticated. For example, specifying sip=168.1.5.65 or sip=168.1.5.60-168.1.5.70 on the SAS restricts the request to those IP addresses.

default value: None
protocol
str

Specifies the protocol permitted for a request made. The default value is https,http. See Protocol for possible values.

default value: None
cache_control
str

Response header value for Cache-Control when resource is accessed using this shared access signature.

default value: None
content_disposition
str

Response header value for Content-Disposition when resource is accessed using this shared access signature.

default value: None
content_encoding
str

Response header value for Content-Encoding when resource is accessed using this shared access signature.

default value: None
content_language
str

Response header value for Content-Language when resource is accessed using this shared access signature.

default value: None
content_type
str

Response header value for Content-Type when resource is accessed using this shared access signature.

default value: None

generate_share

Generates a shared access signature for the share. Use the returned signature with the sas_token parameter of FileService.

generate_share(share_name, permission=None, expiry=None, start=None, id=None, ip=None, protocol=None, cache_control=None, content_disposition=None, content_encoding=None, content_language=None, content_type=None)

Parameters

Required
str

Name of share.

Required unless an id is given referencing a stored access policy which contains this field. This field must be omitted if it has been specified in an associated stored access policy.

default value: None
expiry

The time at which the shared access signature becomes invalid. Required unless an id is given referencing a stored access policy which contains this field. This field must be omitted if it has been specified in an associated stored access policy. Azure will always convert values to UTC.
