How to create azure file storage SAS url(without azure libraries)?


My main target is to create a SAS url (without azure libraries)for file. I tried to create azure storage SAS with blob and everything worked correctly. When I try to do the same in File i got an error. This is my code:

string azAccName = "AccountName";
string resource = "/upgfile/prt.png";
string endPoint = "https://" + azAccName + ".file.core.windows.net";
string uri = endPoint + resource;
string _now = DateTime.UtcNow.ToString("s") + "Z";    
string _noww = DateTime.UtcNow.AddHours(3).AddMinutes(5).ToString("s") + "Z";
string StorageKey = "xxx";

string signedpermissions = "r";
string signedstart = _now;//"2017-02-14"; //yyyy-mm--dd
string signedexpiry = _noww;// "2017-02-14";
string canonicalizedresource = "/file/" + azAccName + resource; //"/blob/myaccount/music/intro.mp3"
string signedidentifier = ""; //YWJjZGVmZw==
string signedIP = "";
string signedProtocol = "https";
string signedversion = "2015-02-21";
string rscc = "";  //Cache-Control
string rscd = "file; attachment";  //Content-Disposition               
string rsce = "";  //Content-Encoding
string rscl = "";  //Content-Language
string rsct = "binary";  //Content-Type      binary


string StringToSign = signedpermissions + "\n" +
               signedstart + "\n" +
               signedexpiry + "\n" +
               canonicalizedresource + "\n" +
               signedidentifier + "\n" +
               signedversion + "\n" +
               rscc + "\n" +
               rscd + "\n" +
               rsce + "\n" +
               rscl + "\n" +
               rsct;

HMACSHA256 hmac = new HMACSHA256(Convert.FromBase64String(StorageKey));
string signature = Convert.ToBase64String(hmac.ComputeHash(Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(StringToSign)));

string link = String.Format("{0}?sv={1}&st={2}&se={3}&sr={4}&sp={5}&rscd={8}&rsct={9}&spr={6}&sig={7}",
                                        uri,
                                        signedversion,
                                        signedstart,
                                        signedexpiry,
                                        "c",   //b for blob
                                        signedpermissions,
                                        "https",
                                        signature.Replace("/", "%2"),
                                        rscd,///////////////
                                        rsct); 

I am getting this error.

<Error>
<Code>AuthenticationFailed</Code>
<Message>
Server failed to authenticate the request. Make sure the value of Authorization header is formed correctly including the signature. RequestId:92eda75a-001a-0072-501d-1bb6fd000000 Time:2017-08-22T08:03:58.6115733Z
</Message>
<AuthenticationErrorDetail>Signature fields not well formed.</AuthenticationErrorDetail>
</Error>

I have almost the same code for blob(small differences) and it works correctly. Any suggestions?


Solution

  • I believe the issue is missing parameters in your stringToSign. You must include all parameters as specified here:

    StringToSign = signedpermissions + "\n" +  
                   signedstart + "\n" +  
                   signedexpiry + "\n" +  
                   canonicalizedresource + "\n" +  
                   signedidentifier + "\n" +  
                   signedIP + "\n" +  
                   signedProtocol + "\n" +  
                   signedversion + "\n" +  
                   rscc + "\n" +  
                   rscd + "\n" +  
                   rsce + "\n" +  
                   rscl + "\n" +  
                   rsct  
    

    If you're not using a parameter (for example signedIP in your case), you must specify an empty line.

    Based on this, your StringToSign should be:

    string StringToSign = signedpermissions + "\n" +
                   signedstart + "\n" +
                   signedexpiry + "\n" +
                   canonicalizedresource + "\n" +
                   signedidentifier + "\n" +
                   "\n" + //For signed IP
                   "\n" + //For signed Protocol
                   signedversion + "\n" +
                   rscc + "\n" +
                   rscd + "\n" +
                   rsce + "\n" +
                   rscl + "\n" +
                   rsct;
    

    Furthermore sr (signed resource type) in the link should be f (for file) instead of c that you're using.
