Cert list operation not working

[bkrodgers]

The docs suggest you can list certs that have been registered in the cert auth backend. See https://www.vaultproject.io/docs/auth/cert.html

However, vault read /auth/cert/certs (or the equivalent curl) return unsupported operation.

I think you meant vault list...and for curl, either -X LIST or adding ?list=true to the URL.

@jefferai -- that worked, but that's not what the API docs say. Can you reopen this for a documentation fix?

[jefferai]

It's what the API docs say, but I've added some more info to clarify it.

[bkrodgers]

The API docs say the method is GET, not LIST.

You can use the API in the following manner.

curl -X GET -H "x-vault-token:bbb" "http://127.0.0.1:8200/v1/auth/cert/certs?list=true"
OR
curl -X LIST -H "x-vault-token:bbb" "http://127.0.0.1:8200/v1/auth/cert/certs"

The docs said it was LIST (in the section heading) with the given endpoint. It also specified GET since listing can be done with GET using ?list=true. That's normal behavior for Vault listing but I have clarified it in this particular document.

In either case, the CLI command for listing is 'vault list', not 'vault read'.
