Transfer Target Key

To complete the key import, transfer the key transfer package (the .byok file) from your HSM Client (offline) computer to the Internet-connected computer.

Use the az keyvault key import command to upload the .byok file to the Key Vault HSM.

Example:

az keyvault key import --vault-name myKeyVaultHSM --name myPrimusByok --byok-file myPrimusRSA4k.byok

If the upload is successful, Azure CLI displays the properties of the imported key. Alternatively, import can also be performed and controlled via Azure Portal.

Verify Imported Target Key

Verify the existence of the imported target key with the command az keyvault key show.

Example:

az keyvault key show --vault-name SecurosysPrimusKeyVault --name SecurosysPrimusByokR4k
