If the application imports the spring-boot-starter-actuator project, the -status of the vault server will be available via the /health endpoint.

The vault health indicator can be enabled or disabled through the -property health.vault.enabled (default true).

2.1 Authentication

Vault requires an authentication mechanism to authorize client requests.

Spring Cloud Vault supports multiple authentication mechanisms to authenticate applications with Vault.

For a quickstart, use the root token printed by the Vault initialization.

The vault health indicator can be enabled or disabled through the property management.health.vault.enabled (default to true).

3. Authentication methods

Different organizations have different requirements for security and authentication. Vault reflects that need by shipping multiple authentication methods. Spring Cloud Vault supports token and AppId authentication.

3.1 Token authentication

Tokens are the core method for authentication within Vault.
