# arpio-config:user-passwords-secret

### Provide a reference to the Azure Key Vault location where database user passwords are stored.

```
arpio-config:user-passwords-secret = <keyvault-secret-location>
```

#### \<keyvault-secret-location\>

The URL associated with the key vault secret that contains the password values to be used. Should be in the following format:  https://\<keyvault-name\>.vault.azure.net/secrets/\<secret-name\>

#### Supported Resources

- Azure PostgreSQL Flexible Server

#### Description

Azure does not allow role passwords to be exported from Flexible Server, so Arpio cannot automatically backup and restore them.  To address this, role passwords can be stored in a Key Vault Secret that Arpio can backup and read during the restore process in order to set role passwords in recovery to the same values that were assigned in the primary server.

#### Examples

| **Tag** | **Value** |
| --- | --- |
| ``` arpio-config:user-passwords-secret ``` | ``` https://my-key-vault.vault.azure.net/secrets/db-user-passwords ``` |
