    // Set the skn (keyname)
    // This example uses the key "RootManageSharedAccessKey".  This give full access.
    // In a typical scenario, you would create a new Azure key (for the service bus)
    // in the Azure portal, such that the key has limited permissions.  This would
    // allow you to give the SAS token to others for specific access for some period of time.
