»Transform Secrets Engine (API)

This is the API documentation for the Transform secrets engine. For general information about the usage and operation of the secrets engine, please see the Transform secrets engine documentation.

This documentation assumes the transform secrets engine is enabled at the /transform path in Vault. Since it is possible to enable secrets engines at any location, please update your API calls accordingly.

Lookup Token

This endpoint returns the token given a plaintext and optionally an expiration or range of expirations. This operation is only supported if the transformation is configured as 'convergent', or if the mapping mode is exportable and the storage backend is external. Tokens may be looked up with an explicit expiration, an expiration value of "any", or with a range of acceptable expiration times. This endpoint is only valid for tokenization transformations.

Method	Path
`POST`	`/transform/tokens/:role_name`

Parameters

role_name (string: <required>) – Specifies the role name to use for this operation. This is specified as part of the URL.
value (string: <required>) – Specifies the token to test for whether it has a valid tokenization.
expiration (string: "") - The precise expiration of the token. If omitted, this specifically searches for tokens with no expiration. If the string "any", will return tokens with any or no expiration. Otherwise, the string must be the RFC3339 formatted time and date of expiration. expiration may not be used at the same time as min_expiration and max_expiration.
min_expiration (string: "") - The minimum expiration time of the token, inclusive, as an RFC3339 formatted time and date. min_expiration may not be used at the same time as expiration. When provided, max_expiration must also be provided.
max_expiration (string: "") - The maximum expiration time of the token, inclusive, as an RFC3339 formatted time and date. max_expiration may not be used at the same time as expiration. When provided, min_expiration must also be provided.
transformation (string) – Specifies the transformation within the role that should be used for this lookup operation. If a single transformation exists for role, this parameter may be skipped and will be inferred. If multiple transformations exist, one must be specified.
reference (string: "") - A user-supplied string that will be present in the reference field on the corresponding batch_results item in the response, to assist in understanding which result corresponds to a particular input. Only valid on batch requests when using batch_input below.
batch_input (array<object>: nil) - Specifies a list of items to be decoded in a single batch. When this parameter is set, the value, transformation, and reference parameters are ignored. Instead, the aforementioned parameters should be provided within each object in the list. In addition, batched requests can add the reference field described above.

Snapshot Tokenization State

This endpoint starts or continues retrieving a snapshot of the stored state of a tokenization transform. This state is protected as it is in the underlying store, and so is safe for storage or transport. Snapshots may be used for backup purposes or to migrate from one store to another. If more than one store is configured for a tokenization transform, the snapshot data contains the contents of the first store.

Since more values may exist than can be returned in a single call, if a snapshot has more values, the response will contain the continuation field, an opaque value that if provided on a subsequent call will resume snapshotting at the next value. If absent, the end of the snapshot has been reached.

Snapshots are guaranteed to contain the values present at the time of the first call to start the snapshot. Values tokenized after the snapshot began may or may not be included.

Method	Path
`POST`	`/transform/transformations/tokenization/snapshot/:name`

Parameters

name (string: <required>) – Specifies the name of the transformation to snapshot.
limit (int: 1000) - The maximum number of tokenized value states to return on this call.
continuation string: "" - If absent or empty, a new snapshot is started. If present, the snapshot should continue at the next available value.

Restore Tokenization State

This endpoint restores previously snapshotted tokenization state values to the underlying store(s) of a tokenization transform. Calls to this endpoint are idempotent, so multiple outputs from a snapshot run can be applied via restore in any order and duplicates will not cause a problem.

Values snapshotted from a default mapping mode store cannot be restored into an exportable mode store and vice versa.

Method	Path
`POST`	`/transform/transformations/tokenization/restore/:name`

Parameters

name (string: <required>) – Specifies the name of the transformation to restore.
values ([]string: <required>) - Any number of tokenization state values from a previous snapshot call.

Export Decoded Tokenization State

This endpoint starts or continues retrieving an export of tokenization state, including the tokens and their decoded values. This call is only supported on tokenization stores configured with the exportable mapping mode. Refer to the Tokenization documentation for when to use the exportable mapping mode. Decoded values are in Base64 representation.

Since more values may exist than can be returned in a single call, if an export has more values, the response will contain the continuation field, an opaque value that if provided on a subsequent call will resume snapshotting at the next value. If absent, the end of the export has been reached.

Exports are guaranteed to contain the values present at the time of the first call to start the export. Values tokenized after the snapshot began may or may not be included.

Method	Path
`POST`	`/transform/transformations/tokenization/export-decoded/:name`

Parameters

name (string: <required>) – Specifies the name of the transformation to export.
limit (int: 1000) - The maximum number of tokenized value states to return on this call.
continuation string: "" - If absent or empty, a new export is started. If present, the export should continue at the next available value.
