            The permissions associated with the shared access signature. The

            Permissions must be ordered read, write, delete, list.

        :param start:
            The time at which the shared access signature becomes valid. If

            storage service receives the request. Azure will always convert values

            or address range specified on the SAS token, the request is not authenticated.
            For example, specifying sip=168.1.5.65 or sip=168.1.5.60-168.1.5.70 on the SAS
            restricts the request to those IP addresses.

            Response header value for Content-Encoding when resource is accessed
