# Key vaults { #key-vaults }
The full guide is at [Vaults](../../guide/vaults.md). Two keys configure them.
## `key_vaults`
- **Type:** `list[dict]`  ·  **Default:** `[]`
An ordered list of key-vault backends. unshackle queries them in order and reuses content
keys instead of re-licensing. Each entry needs a `type` (the backend module name) and a
`name`, plus backend-specific keys.
| `type` | Purpose | Required keys | Notes |
|--------|---------|--------------|-------|
| `SQLite` | Local SQLite database | `name`, `path` | Loaded **critically**; a failure aborts the run. |
| `MySQL` | Remote MySQL database | `name`, `host`, `database`, `username` | Extra keys (e.g. `password`, `port`) forwarded to pymysql. |
| `API` | RESTful JSON API | `name`, `uri`, `token` | Optional `headers` map is sent with every request. Honours `vault_timeout`. |
| `HTTP` | HTTP API with modes | `name`, `host`, one of `password`/`api_key`, and `username` in query mode | `api_mode`: `query` (default), `json`, `decrypt_labs`. Honours `vault_timeout`. |
```yaml
key_vaults:
- type: SQLite
name: Local
path: ~/.unshackle/keys.db
- type: MySQL
name: Team
host: db.example.com
database: keys
username: unshackle
password: hunter2
no_push: false
```
!!! note "Per-entry options"
- `no_push: true` makes a vault read-only (keys are fetched but never written to it).
- A vault of `type: API` whose `name` contains `decrypt_labs` auto-fills its `token` from
[`decrypt_labs_api_key`](misc.md#external-api-keys) when not set inline. Vault `type` values are
case-sensitive module names.
- An all-zero content key (32 zeros) is treated as "no key" everywhere and is never
stored.
## `vault_timeout`
- **Type:** `float`  ·  **Default:** `10.0`
Timeout in seconds for vault operations. Injected automatically into any backend whose
constructor accepts a `timeout` parameter (a per-vault `timeout` still wins).
