Hi , I have a requirement of retrieving the vaultToken , preserving it in cache for a time limit in order to avoid multiple calls to Vault to fetch secret. Is there a way I can retrieve the vault token using VaultSharp?

I am using the below version of Vault Sharp Package package id="VaultSharp" version="1.4.0.5" targetFramework="net452"

Thanks! Mohan

Yes the fetched vault token is made available by VaultSharp here.

https://github.com/rajanadar/VaultSharp/blob/master/src/VaultSharp/V1/AuthMethods/IAuthMethodInfo.cs#L22

You can access the ReturnedLoginAuthInfo to see the vault token that VaultSharp generated based on your login method.

Also note that, if you make million calls using VaultSharp to read secrets, VaultSharp makes only 1 call to get the vault token. It fetches it just once and then internally reuses it for the other million calls. (it uses a lazy variable internally to do this)
