The only thing that is important to note for the creation, that our system is only compatible with the following Key types offered by the OCI Vault:
- RSA & ECDSA

},
"keyType": "secp256r1"

Body Parameters
backend: String - The location where the key is stored. In our caseocias we want to store it in oracle's vault.configvaultId: String - the OCID of the vault where the key should be stored.compartmentId: String - the OCID of the compartment where the vault is located.
keyType: String - the algorithm used to generate the key. For Vault only RSA and secp256r1 is possible.
Example Response
The API will respond with the ID of the key. This ID is the internal reference and can be used in operations such as DID create or key delete.
