==================== Service Operations

To retrieve data about our Swift-compatible service, you may execute GET requests using the X-Storage-Url value retrieved during authentication.

List Containers

A GET request that specifies the API version and the account will return a list of containers for a particular user account. Since the request returns a particular user's containers, the request requires an authentication token. The request cannot be made anonymously.
