    Each region uses the KMSMANAGMENT endpoint for managing keys. This endpoint is referred to as the control plane URL or vault management endpoint. For regional endpoints, see the API Documentation.

    For information about using the API and signing requests, see REST API documentation and Security Credentials. For information about SDKs, see SDKs and the CLI.
