.. -*- rst -*- ======== Accounts ======== Lists containers for an account. Creates, updates, shows, and deletes account metadata. For more information and concepts about accounts see `Object Storage API overview `_. Show account details and list containers ======================================== .. rest_method:: GET /v1/{account} Shows details for an account and lists containers, sorted by name, in the account. The sort order for the name is based on a binary comparison, a single built-in collating sequence that compares string data by using the SQLite memcmp() function, regardless of text encoding. See `Collating Sequences `_. The response body returns a list of containers. The default response (``text/plain``) returns one container per line. If you use query parameters to page through a long list of containers, you have reached the end of the list if the number of items in the returned list is less than the request ``limit`` value. The list contains more items if the number of items in the returned list equals the ``limit`` value. When asking for a list of containers and there are none, the response behavior changes depending on whether the request format is text, JSON, or XML. For a text response, you get a 204 , because there is no content. However, for a JSON or XML response, you get a 200 with content indicating an empty array. Example requests and responses: - Show account details and list containers and ask for a JSON response: .. literalinclude:: samples/account-containers-list-http-request-json.txt .. literalinclude:: samples/account-containers-list-http-response-json.txt .. literalinclude:: samples/account-containers-list-response.json - Show account details and list containers and ask for an XML response: .. literalinclude:: samples/account-containers-list-http-request-xml.txt .. literalinclude:: samples/account-containers-list-http-response-xml.txt .. literalinclude:: samples/account-containers-list-response.xml If the request succeeds, the operation returns one of these status codes: - ``OK (200)``. Success. The response body lists the containers. - ``No Content (204)``. Success. The response body shows no containers. Either the account has no containers or you are paging through a long list of names by using the ``marker``, ``limit``, or ``end_marker`` query parameter and you have reached the end of the list.

To create, update, or delete custom metadata, use the ``X-Account-Meta-{name}`` request header, where ``{name}`` is the name of the metadata item. Account metadata operations work differently than how object metadata operations work. Depending on the contents of your POST account metadata request, the Object Storage API updates the metadata as shown in the following table: **Account metadata operations** +----------------------------------------------------------+---------------------------------------------------------------+ | POST request header contains | Result | +----------------------------------------------------------+---------------------------------------------------------------+ | A metadata key without a value. | The API removes the metadata item from the account. | | | | | The metadata key already exists for the account. | | +----------------------------------------------------------+---------------------------------------------------------------+ | A metadata key without a value. | The API ignores the metadata key. | | | | | The metadata key does not already exist for the account. | | +----------------------------------------------------------+---------------------------------------------------------------+ | A metadata key value. | The API updates the metadata key value for the account. | | | | | The metadata key already exists for the account. | | +----------------------------------------------------------+---------------------------------------------------------------+ | A metadata key value. | The API adds the metadata key and value pair, or item, to the | | | account. | | The metadata key does not already exist for the account. | | +----------------------------------------------------------+---------------------------------------------------------------+ | One or more account metadata items are omitted. | The API does not change the existing metadata items. | | | | | The metadata items already exist for the account. | | +----------------------------------------------------------+---------------------------------------------------------------+ To delete a metadata header, send an empty value for that header, such as for the ``X-Account-Meta-Book`` header. If the tool you use to communicate with Object Storage, such as an older version of cURL, does not support empty headers, send the ``X-Remove-Account- Meta-{name}`` header with an arbitrary value. For example, ``X-Remove-Account-Meta-Book: x``. The operation ignores the arbitrary value. .. include:: metadata_header_syntax.inc .. include:: metadata_header_encoding.inc Subsequent requests for the same key and value pair overwrite the existing value. If the container already has other custom metadata items, a request to create, update, or delete metadata does not affect those items. This operation does not accept a request body.

Metadata for the account includes: - Number of containers - Number of objects - Total number of bytes that are stored in Object Storage for the account Because the storage system can store large amounts of data, take care when you represent the total bytes response as an integer; when possible, convert it to a 64-bit unsigned integer if your platform supports that primitive type.

Accounts are only deleted by (1) having a reseller admin level auth token (2) sending a DELETE to a proxy server for the account to be deleted and (3) that proxy server having the allow_account_management" config option set to true. Note that an issuing a DELETE request simply marks the account for deletion later as outlined in the link: https://docs.openstack.org/swift/latest/overview_reaper.html. Take care when performing this operation because deleting an account is a one-way operation that is not trivially recoverable. It's crucial to note that in an OpenStack context, you should delete an account after the project/tenant has been deleted from Keystone. :: curl -i $publicURL -X DELETE -H 'X-Auth-Token: $' :: HTTP/1.1 204 No Content Content-Length: 0 Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8 X-Account-Status: Deleted X-Trans-Id: tx91ce60a640cc42eca198a-006128c180 X-Openstack-Request-Id: tx91ce60a640cc42eca198a-006128c180 Date: Fri, 27 Aug 2021 11:42:08 GMT If the account or authentication token is not valid, the operation returns the ``Unauthorized (401)``. If you try to delete an account with a non-admin token, a ``403 Forbidden`` response code is returned. If you give a non-existent account or an invalid URL, a ``404 Not Found`` response code is returned. Error response codes:204,401,403,404.
