Add-Type -Path "C:\chilkat\ChilkatDotNet47-x64\ChilkatDotNet47.dll"

$success = $false

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

$rest = New-Object Chilkat.Rest

# 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 -ne $true) {
    $($rest.LastErrorText)
    exit

# Provide Azure Cloud credentials for the REST call.
$azAuth = New-Object 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 = "chilkat"
$azAuth.Scheme = "SharedKey"
$azAuth.Service = "Blob"
# This causes the "x-ms-version: 2021-08-06" header to be automatically added.
$azAuth.XMsVersion = "2021-08-06"
$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.

# Add the x-ms-range header.
# See x-ms-range Header Format
# The file we're downloading contains "Hello World!", so we'll download just the "World!" part..
$rest.AddHeader("x-ms-range","bytes=6-")

# The Azure blob container is "test", the file is "helloWorld.txt"
$sb = New-Object Chilkat.StringBuilder
