Use an Azure Service SAS

Shows how to use an Azure Service SAS. (In this case, it is an SAS for a blob.) PowerShell

# Azure Blob Service Example: Upload binary bytes to a block blob.
# This uses a Service SAS for Authorization.

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

# Connect to the Azure Storage Blob Service
$bTls = $true
$port = 443
$bAutoReconnect = $true
# In this example, the storage account name is "chilkat".

# ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# The code above this comment could be placed inside a function/subroutine within the application
# because the connection does not need to be made for every request.  Once the connection is made
# the app may send many requests..
# ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

# 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.

# Let's load a previously computed Azure Storage Account SAS token and use it.
# See How to Create an Azure Service SAS

$success = $sbToken.LoadFile("qa_data/tokens/azureStorageServiceSas.txt","utf-8")
if ($success -ne $true) {
    $("Failed to load SAS token.")
    exit
}

# Add the Shared Access Signature query params for authorization.
$rest.AddQueryParams($sbToken.GetAsString())

# IMPORTANT: Make sure to set the x-ms-blob-type header:
$success = $rest.AddHeader("x-ms-blob-type","BlockBlob")

# IMPORTANT: Make sure to add the x-ms-date header.
# When the header name is "x-ms-date", Chilkat will recognize the keyword "NOW" 
# and will substitute the current system date/time formatted as required by Microsoft.
$success = $rest.AddHeader("x-ms-date","NOW")

# For this example, we'll just load a JPG file into memory..

# For larger files, the upload must be broken up into blocks.  There is another Chilkat example for that..
