Secret versioning
Versioning allows you to store multiple versions of a secret for secret rotation without interrupting your service operations.
If a secret has versions, one of them is current – it is displayed in the version list with the Active tag. You can make a version current from the version list or when adding a new version.
You cannot delete a secret version — you can only delete the secret with all of its versions.
