  // See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

  // IMPORTANT: Make sure to change "myaccount" to your actual Azure Storage Account name.
  // IMPORTANT: Also change "mytable" to the name of your Azure table.
  // We're going to POST to this URL:  https://myaccount.table.core.windows.net/mytable

  azAuth.xMsVersion = '2019-07-07';
  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.

  // Generate Code to Create JSON

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