## Objects, identifiers, and versioning
6565

66-
Objects stored in Key Vault are versioned whenever a new instance of an object is created. Each version is assigned a unique identifier and URL. When an object is first created, it's given a unique version identifier and marked as the current version of the object. Creation of a new instance with the same object name gives the new object a unique version identifier, causing it to become the current version.

Objects in Key Vault can be retrieved by specifying a version or by omitting version to get latest version of the object. Performing operations on objects requires providing version to use specific version of the object.

### Vault-name and Object-name
74-
Objects are uniquely identified within Key Vault using a case-insensitive URL. No two objects in the system have the same URL, regardless of geo-location. The complete URL to an object is called the Object Identifier. The URL consists of a prefix that identifies the Key Vault, object type, user provided Object Name, and an Object Version. The Object Name is case-insensitive and immutable. Identifiers that don't include the Object Version are referred to as Base Identifiers.
