I learned that BYOK is not supported in Azure China from https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/key-vault/keys/hsm-protected-keys-byok?tabs=azure-cli ,

but in the supported HSM Thales' official document https://thalesdocs.com/ctp/cm/2.14/admin/cm_admin/connection-manager/ms-azure-con/index.html#managing-azure-connections-using-gui , I can see Azure China Cloud is an available Cloud Name to connect to, so I wanted to confirm it again with Microsoft that if BYOK is supported in Azure China Key vault? if it's not supported, pls kindly tell me which specific part is blocking this functionality, thank you very much.

    Hello @Wang Meihua

    Apologies for the delay response!

    Appreciate & Thank you for noticing the supported BOYK-HSM.
    We got confirmation from Product team that the BYOK-HSM is supported in China and the document is updated now.
