Add feature to make this plugin to work as a credential provider

[geoger]

there are several plugin to work as credential provider for jenkins. like this one (https://github.com/jenkinsci/aws-secrets-manager-credentials-provider-plugin) and this one (https://github.com/jenkinsci/azure-keyvault-plugin) It will be very useful to add this feature, and make it work as credential provider

Would appreciate anyone willing to help with this feature, I'll happily review the code changes.

Hi! i'm just curious, how would look like hierarchical vault paths in flat jenkins credentials structure vault:

/secret/folder1/key k1=v1 k2=v2
/secret/folder1/folder2/key2 k3=v3 k4=v4
/secret/folder1/key2 k=v k4=v4

jenkins: ? any insight? :)

+1 for the AWS Secret credential type.

Is this possible without https://github.com/hashicorp/vault/issues/7905 ? At the moment there's no way to indicate what credential type a given vault secret should be, so everything would have to be a 'Secret String'.
