ShareServiceClient Class
A client to interact with the File Share Service at the account level.
This client provides operations to retrieve and configure the account properties as well as list, create and delete shares within the account. For operations relating to a specific share, a client for that entity can also be retrieved using the get_share_client function.

azure.storage.fileshare._shared.base_client.StorageAccountHostsMixinShareServiceClient
Constructor
ShareServiceClient(account_url: str, credential: str | Dict[str, str] | AzureNamedKeyCredential | AzureSasCredential | TokenCredential | None = None, *, token_intent: Literal['backup'] | None = None, **kwargs: Any)
Parameters
Name | Description |
---|---|
account_url
Required
|
The URL to the file share storage account. Any other entities included in the URL path (e.g. share or file) will be discarded. This URL can be optionally authenticated with a SAS token. |
credential
|
The credentials with which to authenticate. This is optional if the account URL already has a SAS token. The value can be a SAS token string, an instance of a AzureSasCredential or AzureNamedKeyCredential from azure.core.credentials, an account shared access key, or an instance of a TokenCredentials class from azure.identity. If the resource URI already contains a SAS token, this will be ignored in favor of an explicit credential
Default value: None
|
Keyword-Only Parameters
Name | Description |
---|---|
token_intent
|
Literal['backup']
Required when using TokenCredential for authentication and ignored for other forms of authentication. Specifies the intent for all requests when using TokenCredential authentication. Possible values are: backup - Specifies requests are intended for backup/admin type operations, meaning that all file/directory ACLs are bypassed and full permissions are granted. User must also have required RBAC permission. |
allow_trailing_dot
|
If true, the trailing dot will not be trimmed from the target URI. |
allow_source_trailing_dot
|
If true, the trailing dot will not be trimmed from the source URI. |
api_version
|
The Storage API version to use for requests. Default value is the most recent service version that is compatible with the current SDK. Setting to an older version may result in reduced feature compatibility. New in version 12.1.0. |
secondary_hostname
|
The hostname of the secondary endpoint. |
max_range_size
|
The maximum range size used for a file upload. Defaults to |
Examples
Create the share service client with url and credential.
from azure.storage.fileshare import ShareServiceClient
share_service_client = ShareServiceClient(
account_url=self.account_url,
credential=self.access_key
)
Methods
close |
This method is to close the sockets opened by the client. It need not be used when using with a context manager. |
create_share |
Creates a new share under the specified account. If the share with the same name already exists, the operation fails. Returns a client with which to interact with the newly created share. |
delete_share |
Marks the specified share for deletion. The share is later deleted during garbage collection. |
from_connection_string |
Create ShareServiceClient from a Connection String. |
get_service_properties |
Gets the properties of a storage account's File Share service, including Azure Storage Analytics. |
get_share_client |
Get a client to interact with the specified share. The share need not already exist. |
list_shares |
Returns auto-paging iterable of dict-like ShareProperties under the specified account. The generator will lazily follow the continuation tokens returned by the service and stop when all shares have been returned. |
set_service_properties |
Sets the properties of a storage account's File Share service, including Azure Storage Analytics. If an element (e.g. hour_metrics) is left as None, the existing settings on the service for that functionality are preserved. |
undelete_share |
Restores soft-deleted share. Operation will only be successful if used within the specified number of days set in the delete retention policy. New in version 12.2.0: This operation was introduced in API version '2019-12-12'. |
close
