[<CommonParameters>] Description
The Restore-AzKeyVaultSecret cmdlet creates a secret in the specified key vault. This secret is a replica of the backed-up secret in the input file and has the same name as the original secret. If the key vault already has a secret by the same name, this cmdlet fails instead of overwriting the original secret. If the backup contains multiple versions of a secret, all versions are restored. The key vault that you restore the secret into can be different from the key vault that you backed up the secret from. However, the key vault must use the same subscription and be in an Azure region in the same geography (for example, North America). See the Microsoft Azure Trust Center (https://azure.microsoft.com/support/trust-center/) for the mapping of Azure regions to geographies.
