- Unseal (unlock) the vault, by providing one of the key shares needed to access the encrypted data store:
`vault unseal {{key-share-x}}`
- Authenticate the CLI client against the Vault server, using an authentication token:
`vault auth {{authentication_token}}`
- Store a new secret in the vault, using the generic back-end called "secret":
`vault write secret/{{hello}} value={{world}}`
- Read a value from the vault, using the generic back-end called "secret":
`vault read secret/{{hello}}`
- Read a specific field from the value:
