## Enable Secrets Engine
|
||
|
||

|
||
| Method | Path |
|
||
| :----- | :------------------ |
|
||
| `POST` | `/sys/mounts/:path` |
|
||
|
||
### Parameters
|
||
|
||
- `path` `(string: <required>)` – Specifies the path where the secrets engine
|
||
will be mounted. This is specified as part of the URL.
|
||
|
||
!> **NOTE:** Use ASCII printable characters to specify the desired path.
|
||

|
||
"aws".
|
||
|
||

|
||
mount.
|
||
|
||

|
||
defaults (e.g. the system TTL/Max TTL)
|
||
|
||
- `default_lease_ttl` `(string: "")` - The default lease duration, specified
|
||
as a string duration like "5s" or "30m".
|
||
|
||
- `max_lease_ttl` `(string: "")` - The maximum lease duration, specified as a
|
||
string duration like "5s" or "30m".
|
||
|
||
- `force_no_cache` `(bool: false)` - Disable caching.
|
||
|
||
- `audit_non_hmac_request_keys` `(array: [])` - List of keys that will not be

|
||
HMAC'd by audit devices in the response data object.
|
||
|
||
- `listing_visibility` `(string: "")` - Specifies whether to show this mount
|
||
in the UI-specific listing endpoint. Valid values are `"unauth"` or
|
||
`"hidden"`. If not set, behaves like `"hidden"`.
|
||
|
||
- `passthrough_request_headers` `(array: [])` - List of headers to allow
|
||
and pass from the request to the plugin.
|
||
|
||
- `allowed_response_headers` `(array: [])` - List of headers to allow,

allowing a plugin to include them in the response.
|
||
|
||
- `plugin_version` `(string: "")` – Specifies the semantic version of the plugin
|
||
to use, e.g. "v1.0.0". If unspecified, the server will select any matching
|
||
unversioned plugin that may have been registered, the latest versioned plugin
|
||
registered, or a built-in plugin in that order of precendence.
|
||
|
||
- `options` `(map<string|string>: nil)` - Specifies mount type specific options
|
||
that are passed to the backend.
|

Additionally, the following options are allowed in Vault open-source, but
|
||
relevant functionality is only supported in Vault Enterprise:
|
||
|
||
- `local` `(bool: false)` – Specifies if the secrets engine is a local mount

### Sample Payload
|
||
|
||
```json
|
||
{
|
||
"type": "aws",
|
||
"config": {
|
||
"force_no_cache": true
|
||
}
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Sample Request
|
||
|
||
```shell-session
|
||
$ curl \
|
||
--header "X-Vault-Token: ..." \
|
||
--request POST \
|
||
--data @payload.json \
|
||
http://127.0.0.1:8200/v1/sys/mounts/my-mount
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Disable Secrets Engine
|
||
|
||
This endpoint disables the mount point specified in the URL.
|
||
|
||
| Method | Path | |
|
||
| :------- | :------------------ | ------------------ |
|
||
| `DELETE` | `/sys/mounts/:path` | `204 (empty body)` |
|
||
|
||
### Sample Request
|
||
|
||
```shell-session
|
||
$ curl \
|
||
--header "X-Vault-Token: ..." \
|
||
--request DELETE \
|
||
http://127.0.0.1:8200/v1/sys/mounts/my-mount
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Force Disable
|
||
|
||
Because disabling a secrets engine revokes secrets associated with this mount,
|
||
possible errors can prevent the secrets engine from being disabled if the
|
||
revocation fails.
|
||
|
||
The best way to resolve this is to figure out the underlying issue and then
|
||
disable the secrets engine once the underlying issue is resolved. Often, this can be as
|
||
simple as increasing the timeout (in the event of timeout errors).
|
||
|
||
For recovery situations where the secret was manually removed from the
|
||
secrets backing service, one can force a secrets engine disable in Vault by
|
||
performing a [force revoke](/vault/api-docs/system/leases)
|
||
on the mount prefix, followed by a secrets disable when that completes.
|
||
If the underlying secrets were not manually cleaned up, this method might result
|
||
in dangling credentials. This is meant for extreme circumstances.
|
||
|
||

## Read Mount Configuration
|
||
|
||
This endpoint reads the given mount's configuration. Unlike the `mounts`
|
||
endpoint, this will return the current time in seconds for each TTL, which may
|
||
be the system default or a mount-specific value.
|
||
|
||
| Method | Path |
|
||
| :----- | :----------------------- |
|
||
| `GET` | `/sys/mounts/:path/tune` |
|
||
|
||
### Sample Request
|
||
|
||
```shell-session
|
||
$ curl \
|
||
--header "X-Vault-Token: ..." \
|
||
http://127.0.0.1:8200/v1/sys/mounts/my-mount/tune
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Sample Response
|
||
|
||
```json
|
||
{
|
||
"default_lease_ttl": 3600,
|
||
"max_lease_ttl": 7200,
|
||
"force_no_cache": false
|
||
}
|
||
```

||
## Tune Mount Configuration
|
||
|
||
This endpoint tunes configuration parameters for a given mount point.
|
||
|
||
| Method | Path |
|
||
| :----- | :----------------------- |
|
||
| `POST` | `/sys/mounts/:path/tune` |
|
||
|
||
### Parameters
|

||
overrides the global default. A value of `0` are equivalent and set to the
|
||
system max TTL.
|
||
|
||
- `description` `(string: "")` – Specifies the description of the mount. This
|
||
overrides the current stored value, if any.

|
||
will not be HMAC'd by audit devices in the request data object.

- `audit_non_hmac_response_keys` `(array: [])` - Specifies the list of keys that
|
||
will not be HMAC'd by audit devices in the response data object.
|
||
|
||
- `listing_visibility` `(string: "")` - Specifies whether to show this mount in
|
||
the UI-specific listing endpoint. Valid values are `"unauth"` or `"hidden"`.
|

|
||
that the mount in question is allowed to access.
|
||
|
||
- `plugin_version` `(string: "")` – Specifies the semantic version of the plugin
