I'm using the set secret PUT API https://myvault.vault.azure.net/secrets/mysecret/ to either create or update an existing secret in my key vault.
The API calls still work for me for now. I'm wondering if there will be future changes to this API as the documentation for it is no longer available online and there's only mentions of powershell commands?
Please check if you are looking for this document , where you can find in keyvault blade > secrets .
Set-secret
:
PUT {vaultBaseUrl}/secrets/{secret-name}?api-version=7.2
This operation adds a secret to the Azure Key Vault. If it already
exists, Azure Key Vault creates a new version of that secret. Needs
secrets/set permission.
Update-secret :
PATCH {vaultBaseUrl}/secrets/{secret-name}/{secret-version}?api-version=7.2
The UPDATE operation changes specified attributes of an existing
stored secret. This operation requires the secrets/set permission.

I have explored all related documentation provided by Microsoft and other related blogs to Azure key vault but have been unable to find how to get a Secret from Azure Key Vault using Perl scripting.
Does Microsoft support reading Secret value from Azure Key Vault using Perl?
You can use a REST client such as REST::Client and call the Get Secret endpoint.
For Azure AD authentication you will need to use an Oauth2 library such as Net::OAuth2::AuthorizationServer.
For more information take a look to Authentication in Azure Key Vault.
Firstly, I am trying to connect my Azure Key Vault to my Encryption at Rest using your Key Management. I followed the guide on MongoDB documentation linkhttps://docs.atlas.mongodb.com/security-azure-kms/
image from MongoDB Atlas Setup
What I've done so far which havn't worked.
I have set up the application and added the client secret, the application has the role "Azure key Vault Reader" assigned to it through the subscription.
I have setup the Key vault under the same subscription as above - with its own resource group to match it. And generated the key.
The key has all the operations.
So I have the Application with Vault Key Reader access and the Key Vault containing the key.
Client(Application) ID is filled with info from the application.
Tenant ID is filled with tenant ID from the application.
Secret is created and stored in the application - is added. (Not the ID)
Subscription ID copied from key vault is added.
Resource group name copied from key vault is added.
Key Vault Name copied from key vault is added.
lastly the Key Identifier is copied from the vault and added.
Still I get this error - is there something wrong with the way I went about it?
I feel I have tried everything combination of setup but it seems like the credentials are setup in a wrong way which I do not understand since it was all copied directly from Azure.
"We were unable to connect to your Azure Key Vault account. Please check your credentials and try again."
"We were unable to connect to your Azure Key Vault account. Please
check your credentials and try again."
As per #Matt Small suggestion in the comment section, if we enable Azure Key Vault logging, we can check if the issue is with wrong credentials or with access policy or network related issue.
If the issue is with access, we can provide the Key Vault Contributor role or add an access policy to get, list permissions for Keys and Secrets for the service principal (App Registration)
As per #Hurup comment, Azure Key Vault Reader role was not enough and the role should not be under Resource Group. Giving the Application higher vault role and setting it under the subscription can resolve the issue
I had the exact same issue. In the end I figured out that I did not have to create the role assignment 'Have an Active Directory Application with the role of Azure key Vault Reader assigned to it.' on the active directory app, but on the Key Vault.
I followed the manual from MongoDb and then in a final step did;
Go to Key Vault
Select key vault
Select Access Control (IAM)
Select Grant access to this resource
Select role Key Vault Reader
Assign access to :User, group, or service principal
+Select Members
Type Application name
Review and assign...
After this I could save the settings on MongoDB to use encryption at rest.
I have a scenario for using Azure Key vault.
I have stored a refresh token in Key Vault. Retrieved the token from key vault in ADF using the web activity. Call the service provider endpoint to generate the Access Token based on refresh token.
I want to store above generated Access token from ADF to Key Vault. How Can i do that?
I went through many articles but did not find any solution on storing the information generated in ADF to Key Vault.
Any help is much appreciated.
Thanks
You can make Rest API call from Azure Data Factory using web activity to store secret in to Azure Key Vault.
Here is the link for Rest API reference:
Sets a secret in a specified key vault.
The SET operation adds a secret to the Azure Key Vault. If the named secret already exists, Azure Key Vault creates a new version of that secret. This operation requires the secrets/set permission.

Currently I am using keycloak on postgres db. and the db creds are provided to environment files. Wanted to know how I can make keycloak obtain the db creds from keyvault something like Azure keyvault ? Is there any documentation / guideline around it?
As per the official documentation ,some part already done but look like still work in progress
To use a vault, a vault provider must be registered within Keycloak.
It is possible to either use a built-in provider described below or
implement your own provider. See the Server Developer Guide for more
information.
To obtain a secret from a vault instead of entering it directly, enter the following specially crafted string into the appropriate field: ${vault.entry-name} where you replace the entry-name with the name of the secret as recognized by the vault.
https://www.keycloak.org/docs/latest/server_admin/#_vault-administration
https://issues.redhat.com/browse/KEYCLOAK-3205
The official boilerplate code injects the npm token as follows
NODE_AUTH_TOKEN: ${{secrets.npm_token}}
How do I access and set this variable? I cant find it in the GUI.
Go to your project in Github
Select the Settings tab
Click the Secrets section in the left hand menu
Add a new secret and provide a name (e.g. npm_token) and a value.
In addition to the GUI, you now (January 2020) have a GitHub Actions API(!, still beta though), as announced here.
And it does include a GitHub Actions Secrets API:
Create or update an repository secret:
Creates or updates an organization secret with an encrypted value. Encrypt your secret using LibSodium.
You must authenticate using an access token with the admin:repo scope to use this endpoint.
GitHub Apps must have the secrets organization permission to use this endpoint.
PUT /repos/{owner}/{repo}/actions/secrets/{secret_name}
Get a repository secret
Gets a single secret without revealing its encrypted value.
Anyone with write access to the repository can use this endpoint.
GitHub Apps must have the secrets permission to use this endpoint.
GET /repos/:owner/:repo/actions/secrets/:name
So the GUI is no longer the sole option: you can script and get/set an Actions secret through this new API.
This page is hard to find, but it exists in the official docs here: Creating and using secrets (encrypted variables).
Copied from the docs below for convenience:
Secret names cannot include any spaces. To ensure that GitHub redacts
your secret in logs, avoid using structured data as the values of
secrets, like JSON or encoded Git blobs.
On GitHub, navigate to the main page of the repository.
Under your repository name, click Settings.
In the left sidebar, click Secrets.
Type a name for your secret in the "Name" input box.
Type the value for your secret.
Click Add secret.
The link above has a bit more info around using secrets as well.
I've created a simple CLI that can help you achieve that - https://github.com/unfor19/githubsecrets
This CLI is based on the official API. You can install it with pip or use Docker, read the README.md for more information
