API Security and Communication

- HTTPS Requirement: All API requests must be made via HTTPS.
- HTTP Methods: The API supports the following HTTP methods: GET, PUT, POST, and DELETE.
- TLS Support: Azure Storage uses TLS 1.2 on public HTTPS endpoints, but also supports TLS 1.0 and TLS 1.1 for backward compatibility.
- CORS: Cross-origin resource sharing (CORS) is supported to allow client-side code in web applications to interact with the API. However, API credentials should not be exposed in client-side code for security reasons.

HTTP Method Usage

- GET: Use GET requests to retrieve data without providing any data in the request body.
- POST: Use POST requests for actions that require data to be sent in the request's body. POST requests expect JSON objects as request bodies.
