That's currently expected. The provider can only be specified for the per-user/per-uid section. The global provider is always local.This is tracked with https://pagure.io/SSSD/sssd/issue/3139 but I agree the manpage is outright confusing. Would it be OK to say for now that the provider must be per-user in the manpage? (In reply to Jakub Hrozek from comment #2) > That's currently expected.

Upstream ticket: https://pagure.io/SSSD/sssd/issue/3417 master: * e8bad995fb1219df2a4fef8f55c80284c6ab36d3 Verified the bug on SSSD Version : sssd-1.16.0-7.el7.x86_64
The following changes are updated in the man page for sssd-secrets :
CONFIGURATION OPTIONS
The generic SSSD responder options such as “debug_level” or “fd_limit” are accepted by the secrets responder. Please refer to the sssd.conf(5) manual page for a complete list. In addition, there are some secrets-specific options as well.
The secrets responder is configured with a global “[secrets]” section and an optional per-user “[secrets/users/$uid]” section in sssd.conf. Please note that some options, notably as the provider type, can only be specified in the per-user subsections.
provider (string)
This option specifies where should the secrets be stored. The secrets responder can configure a per-user subsections (e.g. “[secrets/users/123]” - see bottom of this manual page for a full example using Custodia for a particular user) that define which provider store the secrets for this particular user. The per-user subsections should contain all options for that user's provider. Please note that currently the global provider is always local, the proxy provider can only be specified in a per-user section.
