How to get Azure Key Vault secret using powershell with certificate auth?

I am including a Powershell startup task on an Azure Worker Role which needs to pull a secret from Azure Key Vault. I would like to use a client certificate to authenticate Key Vault request (cert gets installed on the VM when role comes up).

I took a look at this tutorial on azure documentation, but this needs me to write some C# methods and include bunch of nuget packages. Is there a simpler way?

It is possible to use powershell to access the keys in Keyvault . use the Get-AzureKeyVaultSecret command to get the values. It has multiple parameters to suit different requirements such as get all secrets, specific secrets etc.

Details of all the keyvault module commandlets can be found here.
