Storing and retrieving Symmetric keys in Azure keyvault

问题

Any idea if store and retrieval (export the symmetric key out of keyvault) of symmetric keys is supported in Azure Kev vault or possible? I referenced Azure Keyvault documents here and it mentions the Symmetric keys are not supported and may be supported in future (not sure though if the documentation I read is current).

If it’s not supported, is there a way to simulate this using other interfaces like Secrets? Could you share a sample code to do this using Azure Keyvault REST API?

回答1:

You are right about storing the symmetric keys as secrets.

REST API

Here is a detailed article around the code involved to do this using REST API http://thuansoldier.net/7329/

.NET SDK

Here is the nuget package https://www.nuget.org/packages/Microsoft.Azure.KeyVault/

You can use the KeyVaultClient class and GetSecretAsync method.

Here is an example on Microsoft Docs - https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/key-vault/key-vault-use-from-web-application

Similar SDKs are available for Node.js, Java and Python
