Reads a item from the Azure Cosmos service as an asynchronous operation.

public abstract System.Threading.Tasks.Task<Microsoft.Azure.Cosmos.ResponseMessage> ReadItemStreamAsync (string id, Microsoft.Azure.Cosmos.PartitionKey partitionKey, Microsoft.Azure.Cosmos.ItemRequestOptions requestOptions = default, System.Threading.CancellationToken cancellationToken = default);

abstract member ReadItemStreamAsync : string * Microsoft.Azure.Cosmos.PartitionKey * Microsoft.Azure.Cosmos.ItemRequestOptions * System.Threading.CancellationToken -> System.Threading.Tasks.Task<Microsoft.Azure.Cosmos.ResponseMessage>

Public MustOverride Function ReadItemStreamAsync (id As String, partitionKey As PartitionKey, Optional requestOptions As ItemRequestOptions = Nothing, Optional cancellationToken As CancellationToken = Nothing) As Task(Of ResponseMessage)

Parameters

id: String

The Cosmos item id

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>

A Task containing a ResponseMessage which wraps a Stream containing the read resource record.

Examples

Read a response as a stream.

using(ResponseMessage response = await this.container.ReadItemStreamAsync("id", new PartitionKey("partitionKey")))
{
    if (!response.IsSuccessStatusCode)
    {
        //Handle and log exception
        return;
    }

    //Read or do other operations with the stream
    using (StreamReader streamReader = new StreamReader(response.Content))
    {
        string content = 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.
