Volumes are a Unity Catalog (UC) capability for accessing, storing, governing, organizing and processing files. Use cases include running machine learning on unstructured data such as image, audio, video, or PDF files, organizing data sets during the data exploration stages in data science, working with libraries that require access to the local file system on cluster machines, storing library and config files of arbitrary formats such as .whl or .txt centrally and providing secure access across workspaces to it, or transforming and querying non-tabular data files in ETL.
This is the high-level interface, that contains generated methods.
Evolving: this interface is under development. Method signatures may change.

- Method Detail
  - create
```
VolumeInfo create(CreateVolumeRequestContent createVolumeRequestContent)
```
    Create a Volume.
    Creates a new volume.
    The user could create either an external volume or a managed volume. An external volume will be created in the specified external location, while a managed volume will be located in the default location which is specified by the parent schema, or the parent catalog, or the Metastore.
    For the volume creation to succeed, the user must satisfy following conditions: - The caller must be a metastore admin, or be the owner of the parent catalog and schema, or have the **USE_CATALOG** privilege on the parent catalog and the **USE_SCHEMA** privilege on the parent schema. - The caller must have **CREATE VOLUME** privilege on the parent schema.
    For an external volume, following conditions also need to satisfy - The caller must have **CREATE EXTERNAL VOLUME** privilege on the external location. - There are no other tables, nor volumes existing in the specified storage location. - The specified storage location is not under the location of other tables, nor volumes, or catalogs or schemas.
  - delete
```
void delete(DeleteVolumeRequest deleteVolumeRequest)
```
    Delete a Volume.
    Deletes a volume from the specified parent catalog and schema.
    The caller must be a metastore admin or an owner of the volume. For the latter case, the caller must also be the owner or have the **USE_CATALOG** privilege on the parent catalog and the **USE_SCHEMA** privilege on the parent schema.
  - list
```
ListVolumesResponseContent list(ListVolumesRequest listVolumesRequest)
```
    List Volumes.
    Gets an array of all volumes for the current metastore under the parent catalog and schema.
    The returned volumes are filtered based on the privileges of the calling user. For example, the metastore admin is able to list all the volumes. A regular user needs to be the owner or have the **READ VOLUME** privilege on the volume to recieve the volumes in the response. For the latter case, the caller must also be the owner or have the **USE_CATALOG** privilege on the parent catalog and the **USE_SCHEMA** privilege on the parent schema.
    There is no guarantee of a specific ordering of the elements in the array.
  - read
```
VolumeInfo read(ReadVolumeRequest readVolumeRequest)
```
    Get a Volume.
    Gets a volume from the metastore for a specific catalog and schema.
    The caller must be a metastore admin or an owner of (or have the **READ VOLUME** privilege on) the volume. For the latter case, the caller must also be the owner or have the **USE_CATALOG** privilege on the parent catalog and the **USE_SCHEMA** privilege on the parent schema.
  - update
```
VolumeInfo update(UpdateVolumeRequestContent updateVolumeRequestContent)
```
    Update a Volume.
    Updates the specified volume under the specified parent catalog and schema.
    The caller must be a metastore admin or an owner of the volume. For the latter case, the caller must also be the owner or have the **USE_CATALOG** privilege on the parent catalog and the **USE_SCHEMA** privilege on the parent schema.
    Currently only the name, the owner or the comment of the volume could be updated.
