# Vault

For Vault, we use the [`kv engine`](https://developer.hashicorp.com/vault/docs/secrets/kv/kv-v2)  (version 2) for storing the credentials.  When creating your proxy, add the Vault information in order to connect your Secret storage to unSkript.

{% hint style="info" %}
Vault connectivity is only available in the full SAAS implementation, and not in the free Sandbox. Contact us for a demo.
