Azure Key Vault - Setup Bootstrap Secret in Memory

See more Secrets Examples

Accessing a cloud-based secrets manager requires authentication credentials, which cannot be stored within the secrets manager itself.

This example shows how to set up an in-memory bootstrap secret with authentication credentials which will be used in other examples to access Azure Key Vault.

Note: This example requires Chilkat v10.1.0 or later.

Swift

func chilkatTest() {
    var success: Bool = false

    // This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
    // See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

    let bootstrap = CkoSecrets()!

    // This secret will reside in memory.
    bootstrap.location = "memory"

    // Specify the name of the bootstrap secret.
    // service and username are required.
    // appName and domain are optional.
    // Note: The values are arbitrary and can be anything you want.
    let json = CkoJsonObject()!
    json.updateString(jsonPath: "appName", value: "azure_bs")
    json.updateString(jsonPath: "service", value: "Example")
    json.updateString(jsonPath: "username", value: "Joe")

    // The bootstrap secret for the Azure Key Vault will contain
    // the tenant_id, client_id, and client_secret, like this:
    let jsonSecret = CkoJsonObject()!
    // Modify to your values.
    jsonSecret.updateString(jsonPath: "tenant_id", value: "YOUR_TENANT_ID")
    jsonSecret.updateString(jsonPath: "client_id", value: "YOUR_CLIENT_ID")
    jsonSecret.updateString(jsonPath: "client_secret", value: "YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET")

    // Create or update the bootstrap secret (in memory).
    // The secret is stored encrypted in memory, and is available to be used
    // regardless of the lifetime of the "bootstrap" object.
    success = bootstrap.updateSecretJson(jsonId: json, secret: jsonSecret)
    if success == false {
        print("\(bootstrap.lastErrorText!)")
        return
    }

    print("The Azure bootstrap secret has been stored in memory.")
