    - #### obtainSecret

          VaultRawSecret obtainSecret(String vaultSecretId)

      Retrieves a secret from vault. The implementation should respect at least the realm ID to separate the secrets within the vault. If the secret is retrieved successfully, it is returned; otherwise this method results into an empty `VaultRawSecret.get()`. This method is intended to be used within a try-with-resources block so that the secret is destroyed immediately after use. Note that it is responsibility of the implementor to provide a way to destroy the secret in the returned `VaultRawSecret.close()` method.
      Parameters:
        `vaultSecretId` - Identifier of the secret. It corresponds to the value entered by user in the respective configuration, which in turn is obtained from the vault when storing the secret.
      Returns:
        Always a non-`null` value with the raw secret. Within the returned value, the secret or `null` is stored in the `VaultRawSecret.get()` return value if the secret was successfully resolved, or an empty `Optional` if the secret has not been found in the vault.
