The following table describes the elements of the request body.

Element

Type

Description

Name

String

Required. The name of the import or export job. Uniquely identifies the job within the same subscription.

Properties

property

Required. A list of properties for the job.

StorageAccountKey

String

Optional. The storage account key. You must include either StorageAccountKey or ContainerSas in the request. StorageAccountKey is available with all REST versions, while ContainerSas is only available with REST version 2014-11-01.

ContainerSas

String

Optional. The container SAS to use to import or export data to or from the storage account. You must include either StorageAccountKey or ContainerSas in the request. StorageAccountKey is available with all REST versions, while ContainerSas is only available with REST version 2014-11-01.

The value of ContainerSas must start with the container name, followed by a question mark (?) and the SAS token. For example:

mycontainer?sv=2014-02-14&sr=c&si=abcde&sig=LiqEmV%2Fs1LF4loC%2FJs9ZM91%2FkqfqHKhnz0JM6bqIqN0%3D&se=2014-11-20T23%3A54%3A14Z&sp=rwdl

The permissions, whether specified on the URL or in a stored access policy, must include Read, Write, and Delete for import jobs, and Read, Write and List for export jobs.

The sv (service version) parameter must be set to version 2014-02-14 or later.

When ContainerSas is specified, all blobs to be imported or exported must be within the container specified in the shared access signature. In addition, the ImportExportStatesPath must also include this container.

Location

String

Required. The location where the job will be processed.

Note this may not be the same location where your storage account resides. See the List Locations operation to obtain the correct location.

Type

Optional. Metadata associated with the job.

ImportExportStatesPath

String

Optional. The container or virtual directory where the copy logs and backups of drive manifest files (if enabled) will be stored.

If a value is not specified for this element, the logs and manifest files will be written to a container or virtual directory named waimportexport. If a StorageAccountKey is specified on the request, then logs and manifest files will be written to a container with that name. If a ContainerSas is specified, then logs and manifest files will be written to a virtual directory named named waimportexport and located beneath the container named in the shared access signature. See Import/Export Service Log File Format for details.

Note that in REST version 2014-05-01, this element is called ImportExportStatesContainer and its value must be a container name.

EnableVerboseLog

Boolean

Optional. Default value is false. Indicates whether verbose logging will be enabled. When enabled, the verbose log will contain detailed logs for each chunk copy, including status for both successful and non-successful copy operations. Regardless of whether verbose logging is enabled, warnings and errors will always be logged.

Log files are stored as block blobs in the container specified by the ImportExportStatesPath element, using the following naming convention: waies/jobname_driveid_timestamp_logtype.xml.

The addresses of the verbose logs (if enabled) and error logs are returned by the Get Job operation.

BackupDriveManifest

Boolean

Optional. Default value is false. Indicates whether the manifest files on the drives should be copied to block blobs. If this value is true, the destination blobs will be stored in the container specified by the ImportExportStatesPath element.

Remarks

A subscription may have up to twenty jobs active at any given time, not counting jobs that are in the Completed state. Each job may be in one of several different job states; in each state, operations are expected to complete within a certain period of time, or the job will be internally marked as faulted and an investigation will be conducted.

Each job may be comprised of up to ten drives for import or export. To import data that spans more than ten drives, you'll need to create additional jobs.

Note that if you specify a job name that is already associated with a job in the same subscription that is in any state other than Creating, the new Put Job request will be rejected, regardless of any conditional headers specified. If you wish to reuse the same job name, you must first complete the existing job and then delete it.

To update properties of an existing job, you can call the Update Job Properties operation.

After you create a job, you must ship your disks within two weeks. If the disks are not shipped within that interval, the job will automatically be deleted by the Windows Azure Import/Export service.

The service will automatically delete a completed job after 90 days. You can explicitly delete the job prior to that time by calling the Delete Job operation.

When you create an export job, you can specify the blobs to be exported in any of these ways:

  • You can specify a full blob path to export a single blob.

  • You can specify a blob path prefix to export all blobs that begin with the prefix. The prefix must begin with a forward slash and all or part of the container name.

  • You can specify a relative URI to a blob in the storage account that contains a list of blobs to export.

  • The following table shows some examples of valid blob paths and prefixes:

Prefix

Matches These Blobs

/picturecontainer

All blobs in container picturecontainer

/bob

All blobs in containers bob and bobkids

/bob/

All blobs in container bob, but not bobkids, picturecontainer or videocontainer

/picturecontainer/image

Blobs picturecontainer/image, picturecontainer/image.png, picturecontainer/ image2.png, picturecontainer/image/photo.png, and picturecontainer/imagefiles/photo.png

/$root/

All blobs in the root container

/

All blobs in all containers, including the root container.

If a blob to be exported is currently leased, the service attempts to create a snapshot of the blob and export the snapshot instead of the original blob. If a snapshot cannot be created, the blob will be skipped for the current export job but will be included in the incomplete blob list (see Get Job).

Conditional Headers

You can call Put Job with conditional headers specified to create the job only when certain conditions are met. When specifying conditional headers, keep in mind the following:

  • If a request specifies both the If-None-Match and If-Modified-Since headers, the request is evaluated based on the criteria specified in If-None-Match.

  • If a request specifies both the If-Match and If-Unmodified-Since headers, the request is evaluated based on the criteria specified in If-Match.

  • With the exception of the two combinations of conditional headers listed above, a request may specify only a single conditional header. Specifying more than one conditional header results in status code 400 (Bad Request).

The following table indicates the response codes returned for an unmet condition for each conditional header:

Conditional header

Response code if condition has not been met

If-Modified-Since

Precondition Failed (412)

If-Unmodified-Since

Precondition Failed (412)

If-Match

Precondition Failed (412)

If-None-Match

Precondition Failed (412)
