LeaseId Property

The lease Id to include when making requests.

Syntax

 azureblob.getLeaseId([callback])
 azureblob.setLeaseId( leaseId, [callback])

Default Value

""

Callback

The 'callback' parameter specifies a function which will be called when the operation completes (or an error is encountered). If the 'callback' parameter is not specified, then the method will block and will not return until the operation completes (or an error is encountered).

The callback for the getLeaseId([callback]) method is defined as:

function(err, data){ }

'err' is the error that occurred. If there was no error, then 'err' is 'null'.

'data' is the value returned by the method.

The callback for the setLeaseId([callback]) method is defined as:

function(err){ }

'err' is the error that occurred. If there was no error, then 'err' is 'null'.

'err' has 2 properties which hold detailed information:

err.code
err.message

Remarks

This property specifies the lease Id to include when making requests. If non-empty, this property's value must be a GUID string formatted in one of the styles described by Microsoft's .NET Guid(string) constructor documentation. For example: dddddddd-dddd-dddd-dddd-dddddddddddd, where each d is a single case-insensitive hex digit.

The following table indicates whether this property should be populated when calling a method on a container or blob that has an active lease.

For methods in one of the "MUST" categories: if this property is empty, requests will fail if the container or blob has an active lease. For CreateBlob and CopyBlob, note that this property must be empty if the target blob does not yet exist.

For all methods listed above: if this property is populated, requests will fail if the container or blob doesn't have an active lease; or if it does, but the lease Id specified by this property does not match.

Finally, note that this property is used in a specific manner by the Lease method; refer to its documentation for more information.

This property is not available at design time.
