Hi @rashidmd777 ,

you could execute a bash script in the CMD section of your Docker image.

This script could use curl to retrieve the credentials from Vault.

The curl call would look something like this:


curl --header "X-Vault-Token: $VAULT_TOKEN" --request GET $VAULT_ADDR/v1/kv/data/Test

The Vault token and address can be passed as environment variables at container creation time.

The API docs for the Vault endpoint used can be found here: KV - Secrets Engines - HTTP API | Vault by HashiCorp

You can parse NBP and NBU from the response.

Good luck

Nick
