Info

Writing commands - generating secrets

The default Akeyless Vault behavior is that the write commands (generate secrets) are performed to the main region of Akeyless Vault, while the read commands (fetch secrets) are performed on the nearest region to you, in order to minimize latency.
If you wish to change that, in order to work only with the master region, please add
optimize_dns_disable=true in the settings file.
