Managing your Key Vault and the contents of your Key Vault can be accomplished through a REST interface. Below are lists of some of the common tasks for managing both.
Key Vaults
Manage your Key Vault using the following set of operations, which are also known as management plane operations. The management plane interface is used to manage a Key Vault itself. For instance, creating, deleting, or updating Key Vault attributes, and setting access policies for the data plane.
