AppRole Auth Method (API)
This is the API documentation for the Vault AppRole auth method. For general information about the usage and operation of the AppRole method, please see the Vault AppRole method documentation.

please update your API calls accordingly.

POST |
/auth/approle/role/:role_name |
204 (empty body) |
Parameters
role_name
(string: <required>)
- Name of the AppRole.bind_secret_id
(bool: true)
- Requiresecret_id
to be presented when logging in using this AppRole.bound_cidr_list
(array: [])
- Comma-separated list of CIDR blocks; if set, specifies blocks of IP addresses which can perform the login operation.policies
(array: [])
- Comma-separated list of policies set on tokens issued via this AppRole.secret_id_num_uses
(integer: 0)
- Number of times any particular SecretID can be used to fetch a token from this AppRole, after which the SecretID will expire. A value of zero will allow unlimited uses.secret_id_ttl
(string: "")
- Duration in either an integer number of seconds (3600
) or an integer time unit (60m
) after which any SecretID expires.token_num_uses
(integer: 0)
- Number of times issued tokens can be used. A value of 0 means unlimited uses.token_ttl
(string: "")
- Duration in either an integer number of seconds (3600
) or an integer time unit (60m
) to set as the TTL for issued tokens and at renewal time.token_max_ttl
(string: "")
- Duration in either an integer number of seconds (3600
) or an integer time unit (60m
) after which the issued token can no longer be renewed.period
(string: "")
- Duration in either an integer number of seconds (3600
) or an integer time unit (60m
). If set, the token generated using this AppRole is a periodic token; so long as it is renewed it never expires, but the TTL set on the token at each renewal is fixed to the value specified here. If this value is modified, the token will pick up the new value at its next renewal.
