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

Dim rest As Chilkat.Rest
Set rest = Chilkat.NewRest

' Connect to the Azure Storage Blob Service

bTls = True

port = 443

bAutoReconnect = True
' In this example, the storage account name is "chilkat".

success = rest.Connect("chilkat.blob.core.windows.net",port,bTls,bAutoReconnect)
If (success <> True) Then
    Debug.Print rest.LastErrorText
    Exit Sub
End If

' Provide Azure Cloud credentials for the REST call.
Dim azAuth As Chilkat.AuthAzureStorage
Set azAuth = Chilkat.NewAuthAzureStorage
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 = "chilkat"
azAuth.Scheme = "SharedKey"
azAuth.Service = "Blob"
' This causes the "x-ms-version: 2020-08-04" header to be automatically added.
azAuth.XMsVersion = "2020-08-04"
success = rest.SetAuthAzureStorage(azAuth)

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

' This example will set logging properties.  The XML body of the request
' will look like this:

' <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
' <StorageServiceProperties>
'     <Logging>
'         <Version>version-number</Version>
'         <Delete>true|false</Delete>
'         <Read>true|false</Read>
'         <Write>true|false</Write>
'         <RetentionPolicy>
'             <Enabled>true|false</Enabled>
'             <Days>number-of-days</Days>
'         </RetentionPolicy>
'     </Logging>

' Build the request:
Dim xml As Chilkat.Xml
Set xml = Chilkat.NewXml
xml.Tag = "StorageServiceProperties"

Set xLogging = xml.NewChild("Logging","")
xLogging.NewChild2 "Version","1.0"
xLogging.NewChild2 "Delete","true"
xLogging.NewChild2 "Read","true"
xLogging.NewChild2 "Write","true"

Set xRetension = xLogging.NewChild("RetentionPolicy","")
xRetension.NewChild2 "Enabled","true"
xRetension.NewChild2 "Days","7"

' The expected response is a 202 response status code with no response body.

responseStr = rest.FullRequestString("PUT","/?restype=service&comp=properties",xml.GetXml())
If (rest.LastMethodSuccess <> True) Then
    Debug.Print rest.LastErrorText
    Exit Sub
End If

' When successful, the Azure Storage service will respond with a 202 response code,
' with no response body.
If (rest.ResponseStatusCode <> 202) Then
    ' Examine the request/response to see what happened.
    Debug.Print "response status code = "; rest.ResponseStatusCode
