Microsoft's own guidance pushes teams toward separate Key Vaults — per application, per environment, per region, and in multitenant architectures per tenant. That's sound advice, and it leaves you operating a lot of vaults. These are the questions that come up once you are, answered in full rather than pointed at a documentation page.
The Azure portal has no search for Key Vault secrets, inside a single vault or across vaults. What works instead: the CLI, PowerShell, the SDKs, and cross-vault tooling.
Azure Key Vault has no operation that copies a vault. Backup and restore moves one secret at a time within a subscription; scripting reads and writes crosses subscriptions.
Microsoft recommends a vault per environment. What that costs day to day: identical names, different values, drift nobody reports, and caches that delay every rotation.
KickCatch Secrets Manager searches, updates, and clones Azure Key Vault secrets across your vaults and subscriptions, through your existing Azure account — and never retains your secret values.
