Name	Type	Required	Description
where	string	false	Specifies that a standard SAS WHERE clause was used to return the rows for this request.
fileProtection	Table Protection Information	false	Specifies information that you use to access data sets or tables that are protected. Provide password values in the format password-type=password. Possible values for password-type are "ALTER", "PW", "READ", or "WRITE". A password value must be a valid eight-character SAS name.

If the value is "base64", then the password values in the fileProtection structure should be encoded by converting the text to UTF-8 and base64-encoding the result.
