Get Queue Service Properties
The Get Queue Service Properties
operation gets the properties of an Azure Queue Storage account, including properties for Storage Analytics and cross-origin resource sharing (CORS) rules.
For more information about cross-origin resource sharing (CORS) rules and evaluation logic, see CORS support for the Azure Storage services.
Request
The Get Queue Service Properties
request may be specified as follows. We recommend that you use HTTPS. Replace <account-name> with the name of your storage account:
Method | Request URI | HTTP version |
---|---|---|
GET | https://<account-name>.queue.core.windows.net/?restype=service&comp=properties |
HTTP/1.1 |
Note
The URI must always include a slash character (/) to separate the hostname from the path and query portions of the URI. In this operation, the path portion of the URI is empty.
URI parameters
The following additional parameters may be specified on the request URI:
Parameter | Description |
---|---|
restype=service&comp=properties |
Required. The combination of both query strings is required to get the storage service properties. |
timeout |
Optional. The timeout parameter is expressed in seconds. For more information, see Set time-outs for Azure Queue Storage operations. |
Request headers
The following table describes required and optional request headers.
Request header | Description |
---|---|
Authorization |
Required. Specifies the authorization scheme, storage account name, and signature. For more information, see Authorize requests to Azure Storage. |
Date or x-ms-date |
Required. Specifies the Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) for the request. For more information, see Authorize requests to Azure Storage. |
x-ms-version |
Required for all authorized requests. Specifies the version of the operation to use for this request. For more information, see Versioning for the Azure Storage services. |
x-ms-client-request-id |
Optional. Provides a client-generated, opaque value with a 1-kibibyte (KiB) character limit that's recorded in the logs when logging is configured. We highly recommend that you use this header to correlate client-side activities with requests that the server receives. For more information, see Monitor Azure Queue Storage. |
Request body
None.
Response
The response includes an HTTP status code, a set of response headers, and a response body.
Status code
A successful operation returns status code 200 (OK).
Response headers
The response for this operation includes the following headers. The response may also include additional standard HTTP headers. All standard headers conform to the HTTP/1.1 protocol specification.
Response header | Description |
---|---|
x-ms-request-id |
Uniquely identifies a request made against the service. |
x-ms-version |
Specifies the version of the operation used for the response. For more information, see Versioning for the Azure Storage services. |
x-ms-client-request-id |
Can be used to troubleshoot requests and corresponding responses. The value of this header is equal to the value of the x-ms-client-request-id header if it's present in the request and the value contains no more than 1,024 visible ASCII characters. If the x-ms-client-request-id header isn't present in the request, it won't be present in the response. |

The elements of the response body are described in the following table:
Element Name | Description |
---|---|
Logging | Groups the Storage Analytics Logging settings. |
Metrics | Groups the Storage Analytics Metrics settings. The Metrics settings provide a summary of request statistics grouped by API in hourly aggregates for queues. |
HourMetrics | Groups the Storage Analytics HourMetrics settings. The HourMetrics settings provide a summary of request statistics grouped by API in hourly aggregates for queues. |
MinuteMetrics | Groups the Storage Analytics MinuteMetrics* settings. The MinuteMetrics settings provide request statistics for each minute for queues. |
Version | The version of Storage Analytics that's currently in use. |
Delete | Applies only to the logging configuration. Indicates whether delete requests are being logged. |
Read | Applies only to the logging configuration. Indicates whether read requests are being logged. |
Write | Applies only to the logging configuration. Indicates whether write requests are being logged. |
