Vault Web Service http API?

Anonymous
Not applicable

I'd like to write an application pulling data from the Vault api (my app will be written in golang or python). I haven't been able to find documentation on HTTP API of vault web service. Does anyone know where it is? Does it have an HTTP API? Or the only way you can do it is through the SDK (which i believe is only DLLs?).

Vault uses SOAP, so yes, you can use it without the .NET-DLLs. Unfortunately, the SOAP-API is not publicly documented, as far as I know. You can reverse engineer it with a tool like Fiddler.

Have you ever manage to use Vault's API using Python? There is a library called Zeep that seems to be a good match regarding SOAP APIs.

 

I am currently looking for a minimal code example how to connect and authenticate to Vault's API in Python but there is nothing to be found in this forum. In case you got it to work I'd be interested.
