For most tasks, you will find yourself using VaultTemplate that leverages the rich communication functionality. VaultTemplate is the place to look for accessing functionality such as reading data from Vault or issuing administrative commands. VaultTemplate also provides callback methods so that it is easy for you to get a hold of the low-level API artifacts such as RestTemplate to communicate directly with Vault.
