key_vault {AzureKeyVault}

Azure Key Vault client

Description

Azure Key Vault client

Usage

key_vault(
  url,
  tenant = "common",
  app = .az_cli_app_id,
  ...,
  domain = "vault.azure.net",
  as_managed_identity = FALSE,
  token = NULL
)

Arguments

url

The location of the vault. This can be a full URL, or the vault name alone; in the latter case, the domain argument is appended to obtain the URL.

tenant, app

Authentication arguments that will be passed to AzureAuth::get_azure_token. The default is to authenticate interactively.

...

Further arguments that will be passed to either get_azure_token or AzureAuth::get_managed_token, depending on whether as_managed_identity is TRUE.

domain

The domain of the vault; for the public Azure cloud, this is vault.azure.net. Also the resource for OAuth authentication.

as_managed_identity

Whether to authenticate as a managed identity. Use this if your R session is taking place inside an Azure VM or container that has a system- or user-assigned managed identity assigned to it.

token

An OAuth token obtained via get_azure_token or get_managed_token. If provided, this overrides the other authentication arguments.

Details

This function creates a new Key Vault client object. It includes the following component objects for working with data in the vault:

• keys: A sub-object for working with encryption keys stored in the vault. See keys.

• secrets: A sub-object for working with secrets stored in the vault. See secrets.

• certificates: A sub-object for working with certificates stored in the vault. See certificates.

• storage: A sub-object for working with storage accounts managed by the vault. See storage.
