| application_id - |  | Application ID of the client making request on behalf of a principal.

certificates
-

Choices:
- get
- list
- delete
- create
- import
- update
- managecontacts
- getissuers
- listissuers
- setissuers
- deleteissuers
- manageissuers
- recover

List of permissions to certificates.

keys
-

Choices:
- encrypt
- decrypt
- wrapkey
- unwrapkey
- sign
- verify
- get
- list
- create
- update
- import
- delete
- backup
- restore
- recover
- purge

List of permissions to keys.

| object_id - / required |  | The object ID of a user, service principal or security group in the Azure Active Directory tenant for the vault. The object ID must be unique for the list of access policies. Please note this is not application id. Object id can be obtained by running "az ad sp show --id <application id>".

secrets
-

Choices:
- get
- list
- set
- delete
- backup
- restore
- recover
- purge

List of permissions to secrets.

| storage - |  | List of permissions to storage accounts.
| tenant_id - |  | The Azure Active Directory tenant ID that should be used for authenticating requests to the key vault. Current keyvault `tenant_id` value will be used if not specified.
ad_user string |  | Active Directory username. Use when authenticating with an Active Directory user rather than service principal.
adfs_authority_url string added in 2.6 |  | Azure AD authority url. Use when authenticating with Username/password, and has your own ADFS authority.
api_profile string added in 2.5 | Default: "latest" | Selects an API profile to use when communicating with Azure services. Default value of `latest` is appropriate for public clouds; future values will allow use with Azure Stack.

append_tags
boolean

Choices:
- no
- yes ←

Use to control if tags field is canonical or just appends to existing tags.
When canonical, any tags not found in the tags parameter will be removed from the object's metadata.

auth_source
string
added in 2.5

Choices:
- auto
- cli
- credential_file
- env
- msi

Controls the source of the credentials to use for authentication.
If not specified, ANSIBLE_AZURE_AUTH_SOURCE environment variable will be used and default to `auto` if variable is not defined.
`auto` will follow the default precedence of module parameters -> environment variables -> default profile in credential file `~/.azure/credentials`.
When set to `cli`, the credentials will be sources from the default Azure CLI profile.
Can also be set via the `ANSIBLE_AZURE_AUTH_SOURCE` environment variable.
When set to `msi`, the host machine must be an azure resource with an enabled MSI extension. `subscription_id` or the environment variable `AZURE_SUBSCRIPTION_ID` can be used to identify the subscription ID if the resource is granted access to more than one subscription, otherwise the first subscription is chosen.
The `msi` was added in Ansible 2.6.

cert_validation_mode
string
added in 2.5

Choices:
- ignore
- validate

Controls the certificate validation behavior for Azure endpoints. By default, all modules will validate the server certificate, but when an HTTPS proxy is in use, or against Azure Stack, it may be necessary to disable this behavior by passing `ignore`. Can also be set via credential file profile or the `AZURE_CERT_VALIDATION` environment variable.

client_id string |  | Azure client ID. Use when authenticating with a Service Principal.
cloud_environment string added in 2.4 | Default: "AzureCloud" | For cloud environments other than the US public cloud, the environment name (as defined by Azure Python SDK, eg, `AzureChinaCloud`, `AzureUSGovernment`), or a metadata discovery endpoint URL (required for Azure Stack). Can also be set via credential file profile or the `AZURE_CLOUD_ENVIRONMENT` environment variable.

enable_soft_delete
boolean

Choices:
- no
- yes

Property to specify whether the soft delete functionality is enabled for this key vault.

enabled_for_deployment
boolean

Choices:
- no
- yes

Property to specify whether Azure Virtual Machines are permitted to retrieve certificates stored as secrets from the key vault.

enabled_for_disk_encryption
boolean

Choices:
- no
- yes

Property to specify whether Azure Disk Encryption is permitted to retrieve secrets from the vault and unwrap keys.

enabled_for_template_deployment
boolean

Choices:
- no
- yes

Property to specify whether Azure Resource Manager is permitted to retrieve secrets from the key vault.

location - |  | Resource location. If not set, location from the resource group will be used as default.
password string |  | Active Directory user password. Use when authenticating with an Active Directory user rather than service principal.

recover_mode
boolean

Choices:

state
-

Choices:
- absent

Assert the state of the KeyVault. Use `present` to create or update an KeyVault and `absent` to delete it.

subscription_id string |  | Your Azure subscription Id.
tags dictionary |  | Dictionary of string:string pairs to assign as metadata to the object. Metadata tags on the object will be updated with any provided values. To remove tags set append_tags option to false.
tenant string |  | Azure tenant ID. Use when authenticating with a Service Principal.
vault_name - / required |  | Name of the vault.
vault_tenant - |  | The Azure Active Directory tenant ID that should be used for authenticating requests to the key vault.

## Notes

Note

- For authentication with Azure you can pass parameters, set environment variables, use a profile stored in ~/.azure/credentials, or log in before you run your tasks or playbook with `az login`.

- Authentication is also possible using a service principal or Active Directory user.

- To authenticate via service principal, pass subscription_id, client_id, secret and tenant or set environment variables AZURE_SUBSCRIPTION_ID, AZURE_CLIENT_ID, AZURE_SECRET and AZURE_TENANT.

- To authenticate via Active Directory user, pass ad_user and password, or set AZURE_AD_USER and AZURE_PASSWORD in the environment.

- Alternatively, credentials can be stored in ~/.azure/credentials. This is an ini file containing a [default] section and the following keys: subscription_id, client_id, secret and tenant or subscription_id, ad_user and password. It is also possible to add additional profiles. Specify the profile by passing profile or setting AZURE_PROFILE in the environment.
