1# Key Vault Keys — TypeScript SDK Quick Reference
2 
3> Condensed from **azure-keyvault-keys-ts**. Full patterns (crypto operations,
4> key rotation policies, backup/restore, CryptographyClient)
5> in the **azure-keyvault-keys-ts** plugin skill if installed.
6 
7## Install
8npm install @azure/keyvault-keys @azure/identity
9 
10## Quick Start
11```typescript
12import { KeyClient } from "@azure/keyvault-keys";
13import { DefaultAzureCredential } from "@azure/identity";
14const keyClient = new KeyClient(`https://${vaultName}.vault.azure.net`, new DefaultAzureCredential());
15```
16 
17## Best Practices
18- Use DefaultAzureCredential for **local development only**. In production, use ManagedIdentityCredential — see [auth-best-practices.md](../auth-best-practices.md)
19- Enable soft-delete — required for production vaults
20- Set expiration dates on keys
21- Use key rotation policies — automate key rotation
22- Limit key operations — only grant needed operations (encrypt, sign, etc.)
23- Browser not supported — this SDK is Node.js only
