+#' @param maxresults Optional. Specifies the maximum number of blobs to return, including all BlobPrefix elements. If the request does not specify maxresults or specifies a value greater than 5,000, the server will return up to 5,000 items.  Setting maxresults to a value less than or equal to zero results in error response code 400(Bad Request) .
+#' @param prefix Optional. Filters the results to return only blobs whose names begin with the specified prefix.
+#' @param delimiter Optional. When the request includes this parameter, the operation returns a BlobPrefix element in the response body that acts as a placeholder for all blobs whose names begin with the same substring up to the appearance of the delimiter character. The delimiter may be a single character or a string.
+#' @param Optional. A string value that identifies the portion of the list to be returned with the next list operation. The operation returns a marker value within the response body if the list returned was not complete. The marker value may then be used in a subsequent call to request the next set of list items.  The marker value is opaque to the client.
+#'
+#' @return Returns a data frame. This data frame has an attribute called "marker" that can be used with the "marker" argument to return the next set of values.
