Create a New Table in an Azure Storage Account

See more Azure Table Service Examples

Creates a new table using the Azure Table Service REST API. C#

bool success = false;

//  This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
//  See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

Chilkat.Rest rest = new Chilkat.Rest();

//  Implements the following CURL command:

//  curl -X POST \
//    -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
//    -H "Accept: application/json;odata=fullmetadata" \
//    -H "Prefer: return-content" \
//    -d '{   
//      "TableName":"mytable"  
//  }' https://myaccount.table.core.windows.net/Tables

//  Use the following online tool to generate REST code from a CURL command
//  Convert a cURL Command to REST Source Code

//  IMPORTANT: Make sure to change "myaccount" to your actual Azure Storage Account name.
//  URL: https://myaccount.table.core.windows.net/Tables
bool bTls = true;
int port = 443;
bool bAutoReconnect = true;
success = rest.Connect("myaccount.table.core.windows.net",port,bTls,bAutoReconnect);
if (success != true) {
    Debug.WriteLine("ConnectFailReason: " + Convert.ToString(rest.ConnectFailReason));
    Debug.WriteLine(rest.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

//  Provide Azure Cloud credentials for the REST call.
Chilkat.AuthAzureStorage azAuth = new Chilkat.AuthAzureStorage();
azAuth.AccessKey = "AZURE_ACCESS_KEY";
//  The account name used here should match the 1st part of the domain passed in the call to Connect (above).
azAuth.Account = "myaccount";
azAuth.Scheme = "SharedKey";
azAuth.Service = "Table";

//  This causes the "x-ms-version: 2019-07-07" header to be automatically added.
azAuth.XMsVersion = "2019-07-07";
success = rest.SetAuthAzureStorage(azAuth);

//  Note: The application does not need to explicitly set the following
//  headers: Content-Length, x-ms-date, Authorization.  These headers
//  are automatically set by Chilkat.

//  Note: The above code does not need to be repeatedly called for each REST request.
//  The rest object can be setup once, and then many requests can be sent.  Chilkat will automatically
//  reconnect within a FullRequest* method as needed.  It is only the very first connection that is explicitly
//  made via the Connect method.

//  Use this online tool to generate code from sample JSON:
//  Generate Code to Create JSON

//  The following JSON is sent in the request body.

//  {
//    "TableName": "mytable"
//  }
