  title: Very Good Security (VGS) aliases Vaults API
  description: Specification of the public Very Good Security (VGS) APIs. Covers the VGS Vault HTTP API for tokenization (create / reveal / update / delete aliases) served from the verygoodvault.com hosts with HTTP Basic authentication, and the VGS Accounts (control plane) API for managing organizations, vaults, and routes served from accounts.apps.verygoodsecurity.com with a Bearer access token obtained via the OAuth2 client-credentials flow. Endpoint shapes for the Vault API mirror the published VGS Vault API reference; Accounts resources are modeled from VGS platform / IAM documentation.
