(Unicode C) 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.
