Configure Instance Vaults
Instance Vaults provide secure secret management at the Instance level, making secrets available across all Environments within your Ascend Instance. By default, Ascend provides a managed Instance Vault, but you can configure your own cloud provider vault for enhanced control and integration with existing infrastructure.
Prerequisites
Before configuring an Instance Vault, ensure you have:
- An Ascend Instance with administrative privileges
- Administrative access to your chosen cloud provider's secret management service
- Proper permissions to configure vault access at the Instance level
