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. Rust

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

let rest = chilkat::Rest::new();

// 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
let b_tls = true;
let port = 443;
let b_auto_reconnect = true;
if rest.connect("myaccount.table.core.windows.net", port, b_tls, b_auto_reconnect).is_err() {
    println!("ConnectFailReason: {}", rest.connect_fail_reason());
    println!("{}", rest.last_error_text());
    return;
}

// Provide Azure Cloud credentials for the REST call.
let az_auth = chilkat::AuthAzureStorage::new();
az_auth.set_access_key("AZURE_ACCESS_KEY");
// The account name used here should match the 1st part of the domain passed in the call to Connect (above).
az_auth.set_account("myaccount");
az_auth.set_scheme("SharedKey");
az_auth.set_service("Table");

// This causes the "x-ms-version: 2019-07-07" header to be automatically added.
az_auth.set_x_ms_version("2019-07-07");
let _ = rest.set_auth_azure_storage(&az_auth).is_ok();

// 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"
// }

let _ = json.update_string("TableName", "mytable");
