  4.     "spec": {
  5.         "credential": { 
  6.             "sasToken": "New SAS Token"
  7.         },
  8.         "privateLinkServiceConnection": None,  
  9.         "type": "Microsoft.Storage",
  10.         "url": "Storage Account URL"
  11.     } 
  12. }
  13. headers = {
  14.     "accept": "application/json",
  15.     "content-type": "application/json",
  16.     "authorization": "API Token"
  17. }
  18. response = requests.put(url, json=payload, headers=headers)
