Syntax

|---|
public static AccessCondition IfNoneMatch ( string etag ) |

Parameters
- etag
The ETag value to check.
Return Value
A structure specifying the If-None-Match condition.Example
The following example sets the if-none-match condition to upload a blob only if it does not already exist.

|---|---|
static void UploadIfNotExist(Uri blobEndpoint, string accountName, string accountKey)
{
//Create service client for credentialed access to the Blob service.
CloudBlobClient blobClient = new CloudBlobClient(blobEndpoint, new StorageCredentialsAccountAndKey(accountName, accountKey));
//Get a reference to the blob.
CloudBlob blob = blobClient.GetBlobReference("mycontainer/myblob.txt");
//Specify the if-none-match condition.
BlobRequestOptions options = new BlobRequestOptions();
options.AccessCondition = AccessCondition.IfNoneMatch("*");
try
{
//Upload the blob only if it does not already exist.
blob.UploadText("Upload this blob if it does not already exist.", Encoding.UTF8, options);
}
catch (StorageClientException e)
{
if (e.ErrorCode == StorageErrorCode.BlobAlreadyExists)
{
Console.WriteLine("Blob was not uploaded because it already exists.");
}
else
{
Console.WriteLine(e.Message);
}
}

Remarks
Setting this access condition modifies the request to include the HTTP If-None-Match conditional header.
If this access condition is set, the operation is performed only if the ETag of the resource does not match the specified ETag.
To perform the operation only if the resource does not exist, pass the wildcard character (*) for the etag parameter.
See Specifying Conditional Headers for Blob Service Operations for more information.
