+# Vault Provider
+
+The Vault provider for Secretless can fetch secrets from configured secret
+engines in [HashiCorp Vault](https://www.vaultproject.io). The provider is based
+on the [Vault API client](https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/hashicorp/vault/api) in
+Go. It reads the secret object from the configured path and returns the value
+navigated to by the configured fields (or default field otherwise).
+
+## Usage Documentation
+
+The Vault provider is configured in the `secretless.yml` using:
+
+```yaml
+from: vault
+get: /path/to/secret/in/vault
+```
+
+Or with explicit fields navigating to the value in the secret returned at path:
+
+```yaml
+from: vault
+get: /path/to/secret/in/vault#navigate.to.this.field
+```
+
+The provider will read a secret (object) at a given path and returns the value
+of field `value` (by default). By appending `#data.fieldName` to the path, the
+provider will instead read the value at the field `fieldName` in the object
+`data` in the secret (object) instead.
+
+Below are some examples showing how to configure the provider for secrets.
+
+### Example: API key from KV backends (v1 and v2)
+
+Below is an excerpt of an example configuration for a fictional "Example
+Service" that requires an API key, e.g. used in a request header. It gets the
+API key from Vault's KV version 1 backend at path `kv/example-service` under the
+secret's `value` field.
+
+```yaml
+version: 2
+services:
+  my_example_service:
+    connector: generic_http
+    listenOn: tcp://0.0.0.0:8080
+    credentials:
+      apikey:
+        from: vault
+        get: kv/example-service
+        # gets path to API key in Vault, field 'value' holds the API key
+    ...
+```
+
+A slightly different configuration explicitly sets the field `api-key` (instead
+of the default `value`) to hold the API key.
+
+```yaml
+version: 2
+services:
+  my_example_service:
+    connector: generic_http
+    listenOn: tcp://0.0.0.0:8080
+    credentials:
+      apikey:
+        from: vault
+        get: kv/example-service#api-key
+        # gets path to API key in Vault, field 'api-key' holds the API key
+    ...
+```
+
+If the secret is stored in a KV v2 backend (mounted at `secret` by default), the
+configuration must use the use the `data` segment in the path and the
+`#data.api-key` suffix. This is behavior specific to KV v2 in Vault, see Vault
+API docs.
+
+```yaml
+version: 2
+services:
+  my_example_service:
+    connector: generic_http
+    listenOn: tcp://0.0.0.0:8080
+    credentials:
+      apikey:
+        from: vault
+        get: secret/data/example-service#data.api-key
+        # gets path to API key in Vault stored in the KV v2 secret engine
+    ...
+```
+
+## Limitations
+
+- Only token-based login to Vault supported at the moment.
+- Only secrets that are "read" in Vault are supported at the moment. Backends
+  that require "writes" to obtain the secret (e.g. PKI, dynamic database
+  credentials) are not supported at the moment.
+- Backends that have multiple values change simultaneously (e.g. client id and
+  secret, database username and password) are not supported at the moment.
+- Limited support for KV v2 secret engine, only latest version of a secret can
+  be retrieved.
