Bicep resource definition

The vaults/keys resource type can be deployed with operations that target:

Resource groups - See resource group deployment commands

For a list of changed properties in each API version, see change log.

Remarks

For guidance on using key vaults for secure values, see Manage secrets by using Bicep.
