urmila purohit hi,
your function app is trying to reach the key vault over the public internet, but something is blocking the outbound connection on port 443.
this is almost always caused by the network restrictions on either your function app or your key vault.
check the key vault's network settings. go to your key vault in the azure portal, then go to 'networking'. if 'public access' is set to 'disabled' or if it is set to 'selected networks', your function app's outbound ip address needs to be on the allow list. you can find your function app's outbound ip addresses in its 'properties' blade. you need to add all of them to the key vault's firewall allow list.
if your function app is running on an app service plan, you can also consider giving it a dedicated outbound ip by adding a virtual network integration.
another possibility is that your function app itself has outbound restrictions. if it is running in an app service environment or has vnet integration, there might be network security groups or route tables that are blocking traffic to the key vault's public endpoint.
the best long term solution is to use a private endpoint for your key vault. this creates a private ip address for the key vault inside your virtual network. then, if your function app is also integrated with the same vnet, the communication happens entirely over the private network, bypassing the public firewall altogether. the microsoft docs explain this setup well https://free.blessedness.top/en-us/azure/key-vault/general/private-link-service.
check the key vault's firewall to make sure it allows your function app's outbound ip addresses. if you are in a locked down environment, set up a private endpoint for secure, reliable access.

Alex
