azure.keyvault.keys.aio package¶
- class azure.keyvault.keys.aio.KeyClient(vault_url: str, credential: AsyncTokenCredential, **kwargs: Any)[source]¶
A high-level asynchronous interface for managing a vault’s keys.
- Parameters:
vault_url (str) – URL of the vault the client will access. This is also called the vault’s “DNS Name”. You should validate that this URL references a valid Key Vault or Managed HSM resource. See https://aka.ms/azsdk/blog/vault-uri for details.
credential (AsyncTokenCredential) – An object which can provide an access token for the vault, such as a credential from
azure.identity.aio
- Keyword Arguments:
api_version (ApiVersion or str) – Version of the service API to use. Defaults to the most recent.
verify_challenge_resource (bool) – Whether to verify the authentication challenge resource matches the Key Vault or Managed HSM domain. Defaults to True.
Example
Create a newKeyClient
¶from azure.identity.aio import DefaultAzureCredential from azure.keyvault.keys.aio import KeyClient # Create a KeyClient using default Azure credentials credential = DefaultAzureCredential() key_client = KeyClient(vault_url, credential) # the client and credential should be closed when no longer needed # (both are also async context managers) await key_client.close() await credential.close()
- async backup_key(name: str, **kwargs: Any) bytes [source]¶
Back up a key in a protected form useable only by Azure Key Vault.
Requires key/backup permission. This is intended to allow copying a key from one vault to another. Both vaults must be owned by the same Azure subscription. Also, backup / restore cannot be performed across geopolitical boundaries. For example, a backup from a vault in a USA region cannot be restored to a vault in an EU region.
- Parameters:
name (str) – The name of the key to back up
- Returns:
The key backup result, in a protected bytes format that can only be used by Azure Key Vault.
- Return type:
- Raises:
ResourceNotFoundError or HttpResponseError – the former if the key doesn’t exist; the latter for other errors
Example
Get a key backup¶# backup key key_backup = await key_client.backup_key(key_name) # returns the raw bytes of the backup print(key_backup)
- async close() None ¶
Close sockets opened by the client.
Calling this method is unnecessary when using the client as a context manager.
