Create a container
There are three different types of containers that can be created: generic, rsa, and certificate.
Generic
This type of container holds any number of references to secrets. Each secret reference is accompanied by a name. Unlike other container types, no specific restrictions are enforced on the contents name attribute.
RSA
This type of container is designed to hold references to only three different secrets. These secrets are enforced by the their accompanied names: public_key, private_key, and private_key_passphrase.
Certificate
This type of container is designed to hold a reference to a certificate and optionally private_key, private_key_passphrase, and intermediates.
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| name | string | (optional) Human readable name for identifying your container |
| type | string | Type of container. Options: generic, rsa, certificate |
| secret_refs | list | A list of dictionaries containing references to secrets |
