Answer: A,D,E

Explanation:

The kv delete command is like a soft delete which deletes the data for the provided path in the key/value secrets engine. If using K/V Version 2, its versioned data will not be fully removed, but marked as deleted and will no longer be available for normal get requests. The kv destroy command permanently removes the specified versions’ data from the key/value secrets engine. If no key exists at the path, no action is taken. It does not deletes all versions of a secret.

The kv metadata delete command deletes all versions and metadata for the provided key.
