Definition

Namespace:

Microsoft.Azure.Cosmos

Assembly:

Microsoft.Azure.Cosmos.Client.dll

Package:

Microsoft.Azure.Cosmos v3.45.0

Source:

Container.cs

Creates a Item as an asynchronous operation in the Azure Cosmos service.

public abstract System.Threading.Tasks.Task<Microsoft.Azure.Cosmos.ResponseMessage> CreateItemStreamAsync (System.IO.Stream streamPayload, Microsoft.Azure.Cosmos.PartitionKey partitionKey, Microsoft.Azure.Cosmos.ItemRequestOptions requestOptions = default, System.Threading.CancellationToken cancellationToken = default);

abstract member CreateItemStreamAsync : System.IO.Stream * Microsoft.Azure.Cosmos.PartitionKey * Microsoft.Azure.Cosmos.ItemRequestOptions * System.Threading.CancellationToken -> System.Threading.Tasks.Task<Microsoft.Azure.Cosmos.ResponseMessage>

Public MustOverride Function CreateItemStreamAsync (streamPayload As Stream, partitionKey As PartitionKey, Optional requestOptions As ItemRequestOptions = Nothing, Optional cancellationToken As CancellationToken = Nothing) As Task(Of ResponseMessage)

Parameters

streamPayload

Stream

A Stream containing the payload.

partitionKey

PartitionKey

The partition key for the item.

requestOptions

ItemRequestOptions

(Optional) The options for the item request.

cancellationToken

CancellationToken

(Optional) CancellationToken representing request cancellation.

Returns

Task<ResponseMessage>

The ResponseMessage that was created contained within a Task object representing the service response for the asynchronous operation.

Examples

This example creates an item in a Cosmos container.

//Create the object in Cosmos
using (ResponseMessage response = await this.Container.CreateItemStreamAsync(partitionKey: new PartitionKey("streamPartitionKey"), streamPayload: stream))
{
    if (!response.IsSuccessStatusCode)
    {
        //Handle and log exception
        return;
    }

    //Read or do other operations with the stream
    using (StreamReader streamReader = new StreamReader(response.Content))
    {
        string responseContentAsString = await streamReader.ReadToEndAsync();
    }
}

Remarks

The Stream operation only throws on client side exceptions. This is to increase performance and prevent the overhead of throwing exceptions. Check the HTTP status code on the response to check if the operation failed.
