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.

Objective-C

#import <CkoSecrets.h>
#import <CkoJsonObject.h>

BOOL success = NO;

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

CkoSecrets *bootstrap = [[CkoSecrets alloc] init];

//  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.
CkoJsonObject *json = [[CkoJsonObject alloc] init];
[json UpdateString: @"appName" value: @"azure_bs"];
[json UpdateString: @"service" value: @"Example"];
[json UpdateString: @"username" value: @"Joe"];

//  The bootstrap secret for the Azure Key Vault will contain
//  the tenant_id, client_id, and client_secret, like this:
CkoJsonObject *jsonSecret = [[CkoJsonObject alloc] init];
//  Modify to your values.
[jsonSecret UpdateString: @"tenant_id" value: @"YOUR_TENANT_ID"];
[jsonSecret UpdateString: @"client_id" value: @"YOUR_CLIENT_ID"];
[jsonSecret UpdateString: @"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: json secret: jsonSecret];
if (success == NO) {
    NSLog(@"%@",bootstrap.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

NSLog(@"%@",@"The Azure bootstrap secret has been stored in memory.");
