description: "Learn how to configure an Azure Key Vault Certificate Sync for Infisical PKI."
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
**Prerequisites:**
|
|
|
|
- Create an [Azure Key Vault Connection](/integrations/app-connections/azure-key-vault)
|
|
- Ensure your network security policies allow incoming requests from Infisical to this certificate sync provider, if network restrictions apply.
|
|
|
|
<Note>
|
|
The Azure Key Vault Certificate Sync requires the following certificate permissions to be set on the user / service principal
|
|
for Infisical to sync certificates to Azure Key Vault: `certificates/list`, `certificates/get`, `certificates/import`, `certificates/delete`.
|
|
|
|
Any role with these permissions would work such as the **Key Vault Certificates Officer** role.
|
|
|
|
</Note>
|
|
|
|
<Note>
|
|
Certificates synced to Azure Key Vault will be stored as certificate objects,
|
|
preserving both the certificate and private key components.
|
|

<Tab title="Infisical UI">
|
|
1. Navigate to **Project** > **Integrations** > **Certificate Syncs** and press **Add Sync**.
|
|

|
|
|
|
2. Select the **Azure Key Vault** option.
|
|

|
|
|
|
3. Configure the **Destination** to where certificates should be deployed, then click **Next**.
|
|

|
|
|
|
- **Azure Connection**: The Azure Connection to authenticate with.
|
|
- **Vault Base URL**: The URL of your Azure Key Vault.
|
|
|
|
4. Configure the **Sync Options** to specify how certificates should be synced, then click **Next**.
|
|

|
|
|
|
- **Enable Removal of Expired/Revoked Certificates**: If enabled, Infisical will remove certificates from the destination if they are no longer active in Infisical.
|
|
- **Enable Versioning on Renewal**: If enabled, Infisical will sync renewed certificates to the destination under a new version of the original synced certificate instead of creating a new certificate.
|
|
- **Certificate Name Schema** (Optional): Customize how certificate names are generated in Azure Key Vault. Use `{{certificateId}}` as a placeholder for the certificate ID. If not specified, defaults to `Infisical-{{certificateId}}`.
|
|
- **Auto-Sync Enabled**: If enabled, certificates will automatically be synced when changes occur. Disable to enforce manual syncing only.
|
|
|
|
<Tip>
|
|
**Azure Key Vault Soft Delete**: When certificates are removed from Azure Key Vault, they are placed in a soft-deleted state rather than being permanently deleted. This means:
|
|
- Subsequent syncs will not re-add these soft-deleted certificates automatically
|
|
- To resync removed certificates, you must either manually **purge** them from Azure Key Vault or **recover** them through the Azure portal/CLI
|
|
</Tip>
|
|
|
|
5. Configure the **Details** of your Azure Key Vault Certificate Sync, then click **Next**.
|
|

|
|
|
|
- **Name**: The name of your sync. Must be slug-friendly.
|
|
- **Description**: An optional description for your sync.
|
|
|
|
6. Select which certificates should be synced to Azure Key Vault.
|
|

|
|
|
|
7. Review your Azure Key Vault Certificate Sync configuration, then click **Create Sync**.
|
|

|
|
|
|
8. If enabled, your Azure Key Vault Certificate Sync will begin syncing your certificates to the destination endpoint.
|
|

|
|
</Tab>
|
|
<Tab title="API">
|
|
To create an **Azure Key Vault Certificate Sync**, make an API request to the [Create Azure Key Vault Certificate Sync](/api-reference/endpoints/pki/syncs/azure-key-vault/create) API endpoint.
|
|
|
|
### Sample request
|
|
|
|
<Note>
|
|
You can optionally specify `certificateIds` during sync creation to immediately add certificates to the sync.
|
|
If not provided, you can add certificates later using the certificate management endpoints.
|
|

## Certificate Management
|
|
|
|
Your Azure Key Vault Certificate Sync will:
|
|
|
|
- **Automatic Deployment**: Deploy certificates in Infisical to Azure Key Vault.
|
|
- **Certificate Updates**: Update certificates in Azure Key Vault when renewals occur
|
|
- **Expiration Handling**: Optionally remove expired certificates from Azure Key Vault (if enabled)
|
|
- **Format Preservation**: Maintain certificate format and metadata during sync operations
|
|
|
|
<Note>
|
|
Azure Key Vault Certificate Syncs support both automatic and manual
|
|
synchronization modes. When auto-sync is enabled, certificates are
|
|
automatically deployed as they are issued or renewed.
|
|
</Note>
|
|
|
|
## Manual Certificate Sync
|
|
|
|
You can manually trigger certificate synchronization to Azure Key Vault using the sync certificates functionality. This is useful for:
|
|
|
|
- Initial setup when you have existing certificates to deploy
|
|
- One-time sync of specific certificates
|
|
- Testing certificate sync configurations
|
|
- Force sync after making changes
|
|
|
|
To manually sync certificates, use the [Sync Certificates](/api-reference/endpoints/pki/syncs/azure-key-vault/sync-certificates) API endpoint or the manual sync option in the Infisical UI.
|
|
|
|
<Note>
|
|
Azure Key Vault does not support importing certificates back into Infisical
|
|
due to security limitations where private keys cannot be extracted from Azure
|
|
Key Vault.
