Usage: vault kv metadata <subcommand> [options] [args]
This command has subcommands for interacting with the metadata endpoint in
Vault's key-value store. Here are some simple examples, and more detailed
examples are available in the subcommands or the documentation.
Create or update a metadata entry for a key:
$ vault kv metadata put -mount=secret -max-versions=5 -delete-version-after=3h25m19s foo
Get the metadata for a key, this provides information about each existing
version:
$ vault kv metadata get -mount=secret foo
Delete a key and all existing versions:
$ vault kv metadata delete -mount=secret foo
The deprecated path-like syntax can also be used, but this should be avoided
for KV v2, as the fact that it is not actually the full API path to
the secret (secret/metadata/foo) can cause confusion:
$ vault kv metadata get secret/foo
Please see the individual subcommand help for detailed usage information.
