Get Table ACL
The Get Table ACL
operation returns details about any stored access policies that are specified on the table, and it can be used with shared access signatures. For more information, see Define a stored access policy.
The Get Table ACL
operation is available in version 2012-02-12 and later.
Note
An access control list (ACL) is a list of access control entries (ACE). Each ACE in an ACL identifies a trustee and specifies the access rights that are allowed, denied, or audited for that trustee. For more information, see Access control lists.
Request
You can construct the Get Table ACL
request as follows. We recommend that you use HTTPS. Replace myaccount with the name of your storage account:
Method | Request URI | HTTP version |
---|---|---|
GET/HEAD |
https://myaccount.table.core.windows.net/mytable?comp=acl |
HTTP/1.1 |
Emulated storage service request
When you're making a request against the emulated storage service, specify the emulator hostname and Azure Table Storage port as 127.0.0.1:10002
, followed by the emulated storage account name:
Method | Request URI | HTTP version |
---|---|---|
GET/HEAD |
http://127.0.0.1:10002/devstoreaccount1/mytable?comp=acl |
HTTP/1.1 |
For more information, see Use the Azurite emulator for local Azure Storage development.
URI parameters
The following additional parameters may be specified on the request URI:
Parameter | Description |
---|---|
timeout |
Optional. The timeout parameter is expressed in seconds. For more information, see Set time-outs for Azure Table Storage operations. |
Request headers
The following table describes required and optional request headers.
Request header | Description |
---|---|
Authorization |
Required. Specifies the authorization scheme, account name, and signature. For more information, see Authorize requests to Azure Storage. |
Date or x-ms-date |
Required. Specifies the Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) for the request. For more information, see Authorize requests to Azure Storage. |
x-ms-version |
Required for all authorized requests. Specifies the version of the operation to use for this request. For more information, see Versioning for the Azure Storage services. |
x-ms-client-request-id |
Optional. Provides a client-generated, opaque value with a 1-kibibyte (KiB) character limit that's recorded in the logs when logging is configured. We highly recommend that you use this header to correlate client-side activities with requests that the server receives. For more information, see Monitor Azure Table Storage. |
Request body
None.
Response
The response includes an HTTP status code, a set of response headers, and a response body.
Status code
A successful operation returns status code 200 (OK).
For more information about status codes, see Status and error codes.
Response headers
The response for this operation includes the following headers. The response may also include additional standard HTTP headers. All standard headers conform to the HTTP/1.1 protocol specification.
Response header | Description |
---|---|
x-ms-request-id |
Uniquely identifies the request that was made and can be used to troubleshoot the request. For more information, see Troubleshoot API operations. |
x-ms-version |
Indicates the Azure Table Storage version that was used to execute the request. This header is returned for requests made against version 2009-09-19 or later. |
Date |
A UTC date/time value that's generated by the service, which indicates the time when the response was initiated. |
