Key Vault — Python SDK Quick Reference

Condensed from azure-keyvault-py. Full patterns (async clients, cryptographic operations, certificate management, error handling) in the azure-keyvault-py plugin skill if installed.

Install

pip install azure-keyvault-secrets azure-keyvault-keys azure-keyvault-certificates azure-identity

Quick Start

from azure.identity import DefaultAzureCredential
from azure.keyvault.secrets import SecretClient
client = SecretClient(vault_url="https://<vault>.vault.azure.net/", credential=DefaultAzureCredential())

Best Practices

  • Use DefaultAzureCredential for local development only. In production, use ManagedIdentityCredential — see auth-best-practices.md
  • Use managed identity in Azure-hosted applications
  • Enable soft-delete for recovery (enabled by default)
  • Use RBAC over access policies for fine-grained control
  • Rotate secrets regularly using versioning
  • Use Key Vault references in App Service/Functions config
  • Cache secrets appropriately to reduce API calls
  • Use async clients for high-throughput scenarios
