azure.cosmosdb.table.tableservicemoduleclassazure.cosmosdb.table.tableservice.TableService(account_name=None,account_key=None,sas_token=None,is_emulated=False,protocol='https',endpoint_suffix='core.windows.net',request_session=None,connection_string=None,socket_timeout=None)
Bases: azure.cosmosdb.table.common.storageclient.StorageClient
This is the main class managing Azure Table resources.
The Azure Table service offers structured storage in the form of tables. Tables store data as
collections of entities. Entities are similar to rows. An entity has a primary key and a set of
properties. A property is a name, typed-value pair, similar to a column. The Table service does
not enforce any schema for tables, so two entities in the same table may have different sets of
properties. Developers may choose to enforce a schema on the client side. A table may contain any
number of entities.
Variables
• key_encryption_key (object) -- The key-encryption-key optionally provided by the user. If
provided, will be used to encrypt/decrypt in supported methods. For methods requiring
decryption, either the key_encryption_key OR the resolver must be provided. If both are
provided, the resolver will take precedence. Must implement the following methods for
APIs requiring encryption: wrap_key(key)--wraps the specified key (bytes) using an
algorithm of the user's choice. Returns the encrypted key as bytes.

• key_resolver_function(kid) (function) -- A function to resolve keys optionally provided
by the user. If provided, will be used to decrypt in supported methods. For methods
requiring decryption, either the key_encryption_key OR the resolver must be provided. If
both are provided, the resolver will take precedence. It uses the kid string to return a
key-encryption-key implementing the interface defined above.
• encryption_resolver_functions (function(partition_key,row_key,property_name)) -- A
function that takes in an entity's partition key, row key, and property name and returns

Parameterstimeout (int) -- The server timeout, expressed in seconds.
Returns
The table service properties.
ReturntypeServicePropertiesget_table_service_stats(timeout=None)
Retrieves statistics related to replication for the Table service. It is only available
when read-access geo-redundant replication is enabled for the storage account.
With geo-redundant replication, Azure Storage maintains your data durable in two locations.
In both locations, Azure Storage constantly maintains multiple healthy replicas of your
data. The location where you read, create, update, or delete data is the primary storage
account location. The primary location exists in the region you choose at the time you
create an account via the Azure Management Azure classic portal, for example, North Central
US. The location to which your data is replicated is the secondary location. The secondary
location is automatically determined based on the location of the primary; it is in a
second data center that resides in the same region as the primary location. Read-only
access is available from the secondary location, if read-access geo-redundant replication
is enabled for your storage account.
Parameterstimeout (int) -- The timeout parameter is expressed in seconds.
Returns
The table service stats.
ReturntypeServiceStatsinsert_entity(table_name,entity,timeout=None)
Inserts a new entity into the table. Throws if an entity with the same PartitionKey and
RowKey already exists.
When inserting an entity into a table, you must specify values for the PartitionKey and
RowKey system properties. Together, these properties form the primary key and must be
unique within the table. Both the PartitionKey and RowKey values must be string values;
each key value may be up to 64 KB in size. If you are using an integer value for the key
value, you should convert the integer to a fixed-width string, because they are canonically
sorted. For example, you should convert the value 1 to 0000001 to ensure proper sorting.
Parameters
• table_name (str) -- The name of the table to insert the entity into.
• entity (dict or Entity) -- The entity to insert. Could be a dict or an entity
object. Must contain a PartitionKey and a RowKey.
• timeout (int) -- The server timeout, expressed in seconds.
Returns
The etag of the inserted entity.
Returntype
str
insert_or_merge_entity(table_name,entity,timeout=None)
Merges an existing entity or inserts a new entity if it does not exist in the table.

entity will be retained if the request does not define or include them.
Parameters
• table_name (str) -- The name of the table in which to insert or merge the entity.
• entity (dict or Entity) -- The entity to insert or merge. Could be a dict or an
entity object. Must contain a PartitionKey and a RowKey.

Returns
The etag of the entity.
Returntype
str
insert_or_replace_entity(table_name,entity,timeout=None)
Replaces an existing entity or inserts a new entity if it does not exist in the table.
Because this operation can insert or update an entity, it is also known as an "upsert"
operation.
If insert_or_replace_entity is used to replace an entity, any properties from the previous
entity will be removed if the new entity does not define them.
Parameters
• table_name (str) -- The name of the table in which to insert or replace the
entity.
• entity (dict or Entity) -- The entity to insert or replace. Could be a dict or an
entity object. Must contain a PartitionKey and a RowKey.

Returns
The etag of the entity.
Returntype
str
list_tables(num_results=None,marker=None,timeout=None)
Returns a generator to list the tables. The generator will lazily follow the continuation
tokens returned by the service and stop when all tables have been returned or num_results
is reached.
If num_results is specified and the account has more than that number of tables, the
generator will have a populated next_marker field once it finishes. This marker can be used
to create a new generator if more results are desired.
Parameters
• num_results (int) -- The maximum number of tables to return.
• marker (obj) -- An opaque continuation object. This value can be retrieved from
the next_marker field of a previous generator object if num_results was specified
and that generator has finished enumerating results. If specified, this generator
will begin returning results from the point where the previous generator stopped.
• timeout (int) -- The server timeout, expressed in seconds. This function may make
multiple calls to the service in which case the timeout value specified will be
applied to each individual call.
Returns
A generator which produces Table objects.
ReturntypeListGenerator:
merge_entity(table_name,entity,if_match='*',timeout=None)
Updates an existing entity by merging the entity's properties. Throws if the entity does
not exist.
This operation does not replace the existing entity as the update_entity operation does. A
property cannot be removed with merge_entity.
Any properties with null values are ignored. All other properties will be updated or added.
Parameters
• table_name (str) -- The name of the table containing the entity to merge.
• entity (dict or Entity) -- The entity to merge. Could be a dict or an entity
object. Must contain a PartitionKey and a RowKey.
• if_match (str) -- The client may specify the ETag for the entity on the request in
order to compare to the ETag maintained by the service for the purpose of
optimistic concurrency. The merge operation will be performed only if the ETag
sent by the client matches the value maintained by the server, indicating that the
entity has not been modified since it was retrieved by the client. To force an
unconditional merge, set If-Match to the wildcard character (*).
• timeout (int) -- The server timeout, expressed in seconds.
Returns
The etag of the entity.
Returntype
str
query_entities(table_name,filter=None,select=None,num_results=None,marker=None,accept='application/json;odata=minimalmetadata',property_resolver=None,timeout=None)
Returns a generator to list the entities in the table specified. The generator will lazily
follow the continuation tokens returned by the service and stop when all entities have been
returned or num_results is reached.
If num_results is specified and the account has more than that number of entities, the
generator will have a populated next_marker field once it finishes. This marker can be used
to create a new generator if more results are desired.
Parameters

multiple calls to the service in which case the timeout value specified will be
applied to each individual call.
Returns
A generator which produces Entity objects.
ReturntypeListGeneratorset_table_acl(table_name,signed_identifiers=None,timeout=None)
Sets stored access policies for the table that may be used with Shared Access Signatures.
When you set permissions for a table, the existing permissions are replaced. To update the
table's permissions, call get_table_acl() to fetch all access policies associated with the
table, modify the access policy that you wish to change, and then call this function with
the complete set of data to perform the update.
When you establish a stored access policy on a table, it may take up to 30 seconds to take
effect. During this interval, a shared access signature that is associated with the stored
access policy will throw an AzureHttpError until the access policy becomes active.
Parameters
• table_name (str) -- The name of an existing table.
• signed_identifiers (dict(str, AccessPolicy)) -- A dictionary of access policies to
associate with the table. The dictionary may contain up to 5 elements. An empty
dictionary will clear the access policies set on the service.
• timeout (int) -- The server timeout, expressed in seconds.
set_table_service_properties(logging=None,hour_metrics=None,minute_metrics=None,cors=None,timeout=None)
Sets the properties of a storage account's Table service, including Azure Storage
Analytics. If an element (ex Logging) is left as None, the existing settings on the service
for that functionality are preserved. For more information on Azure Storage Analytics, see
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/azure/hh343270.aspx.
Parameters
• logging (Logging) -- The logging settings provide request logs.
• hour_metrics (Metrics) -- The hour metrics settings provide a summary of request
statistics grouped by API in hourly aggregates for tables.
• minute_metrics (Metrics) -- The minute metrics settings provide request statistics
for each minute for tables.
• cors (list(CorsRule)) -- You can include up to five CorsRule elements in the list.
If an empty list is specified, all CORS rules will be deleted, and CORS will be
disabled for the service. For detailed information about CORS rules and evaluation
logic, see https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/azure/dn535601.aspx.
• timeout (int) -- The server timeout, expressed in seconds.
update_entity(table_name,entity,if_match='*',timeout=None)
Updates an existing entity in a table. Throws if the entity does not exist. The
update_entity operation replaces the entire entity and can be used to remove properties.
Parameters
• table_name (str) -- The name of the table containing the entity to update.
• entity (dict or Entity) -- The entity to update. Could be a dict or an entity
object. Must contain a PartitionKey and a RowKey.
• if_match (str) -- The client may specify the ETag for the entity on the request in
order to compare to the ETag maintained by the service for the purpose of
optimistic concurrency. The update operation will be performed only if the ETag
sent by the client matches the value maintained by the server, indicating that the
entity has not been modified since it was retrieved by the client. To force an
unconditional update, set If-Match to the wildcard character (*).
• timeout (int) -- The server timeout, expressed in seconds.
Returns
The etag of the entity.
