Key Types

Type	Description
RSA	RSA key (2048, 3072, 4096 bits)
RSA_HSM	RSA key in HSM
EC	Elliptic Curve key
EC_HSM	Elliptic Curve key in HSM
OCT	Symmetric key (Managed HSM only)
OCT_HSM	Symmetric key in HSM

Create Keys

Create RSA Key

import com.azure.security.keyvault.keys.models.*;

// Simple RSA key
KeyVaultKey rsaKey = keyClient.createRsaKey(new CreateRsaKeyOptions("my-rsa-key")
    .setKeySize(2048));

System.out.println("Key name: " + rsaKey.getName());
System.out.println("Key ID: " + rsaKey.getId());
System.out.println("Key type: " + rsaKey.getKeyType());

// RSA key with options
KeyVaultKey rsaKeyWithOptions = keyClient.createRsaKey(new CreateRsaKeyOptions("my-rsa-key-2")
    .setKeySize(4096)
    .setExpiresOn(OffsetDateTime.now().plusYears(1))
    .setNotBefore(OffsetDateTime.now())
    .setEnabled(true)
    .setKeyOperations(KeyOperation.ENCRYPT, KeyOperation.DECRYPT, 
                       KeyOperation.WRAP_KEY, KeyOperation.UNWRAP_KEY)
    .setTags(Map.of("environment", "production")));

// HSM-backed RSA key
KeyVaultKey hsmKey = keyClient.createRsaKey(new CreateRsaKeyOptions("my-hsm-key")
    .setKeySize(2048)
    .setHardwareProtected(true));
