Do you use Configuration over Key Vault?
Last updated by Andrew Harris [SSW] 4 months ago.See historyWe all know that we should Store Secrets Securely using Key Vault, but did you know that rather than have developers having to deal with a combination of Key Vault and Configuration, you can abstract Key Vault out of your application code and leave developers to only have to deal with Configuration?
A feature of Azure AppService is the ability to use secrets from Key Vault as Configuration values. This allows you to setup a link between your AppService and a Key Vault and have Configuration values point to a Key Vault Entry.
So now rather than developers having to think about if a value is a secret or configurations, it's always configuration. It just might have its value stored securely in Key Vault.
Note: the "Pull reference values" button now available in App Service. When you update a Key Vault value, the old value is cached by App Services. You will need to use this option to refresh the value for your app.
