Secrets API reference

Get Secret

This endpoint lets you get the value of a secret for a given secret store.

HTTP Request

GET http://localhost:<daprPort>/v1.0/secrets/<secret-store-name>/<name>

URL Parameters

Note, all URL parameters are case-sensitive.

Query Parameters

Some secret stores support optional, per-request metadata properties. Use query parameters to provide those properties. For example:

GET http://localhost:<daprPort>/v1.0/secrets/<secret-store-name>/<name>?metadata.version_id=15

Observe that not all secret stores support the same set of parameters. For example:

• Hashicorp Vault, GCP Secret Manager and AWS Secret Manager support the version_id parameter
• Only AWS Secret Manager supports the version_stage parameter
• Only Kubernetes Secrets supports the namespace parameter Check each secret store’s documentation for the list of supported parameters.

HTTP Response

Response Body

If a secret store has support for multiple key-values in a secret, a JSON payload is returned with the key names as fields and their respective values.

In case of a secret store that only has name/value semantics, a JSON payload is returned with the name of the secret as the field and the value of the secret as the value.

See the classification of secret stores that support multiple keys in a secret and name/value semantics.

Response with multiple keys in a secret (eg. Kubernetes):

curl http://localhost:3500/v1.0/secrets/kubernetes/db-secret

{
  "key1": "value1",
  "key2": "value2"
}

The above example demonstrates a response from a secret store with multiple keys in a secret. Note that the secret name (db-secret) is not returned as part of the result.

Response from a secret store with name/value semantics:

curl http://localhost:3500/v1.0/secrets/vault/db-secret

{
  "db-secret": "value1"
}

The above example demonstrates a response from a secret store with name/value semantics. Compared to the result from a secret store with multiple keys in a secret, this result returns a single key-value pair, with the secret name (db-secret) returned as the key in the key-value pair.

Response Codes

Examples

curl http://localhost:3500/v1.0/secrets/mySecretStore/db-secret

curl http://localhost:3500/v1.0/secrets/myAwsSecretStore/db-secret?metadata.version_id=15&metadata.version_stage=production

Get Bulk Secret

This endpoint lets you get all the secrets in a secret store. It’s recommended to use token authentication for Dapr if configuring a secret store.

HTTP Request

GET http://localhost:<daprPort>/v1.0/secrets/<secret-store-name>/bulk

URL Parameters

Note, all URL parameters are case-sensitive.

HTTP Response

Response Body

The returned response is a JSON containing the secrets. The JSON object will contain the secret names as fields and a map of secret keys and values as the field value.

Response with multiple secrets and multiple key / values in a secret (eg. Kubernetes):

curl http://localhost:3500/v1.0/secrets/kubernetes/bulk

{
    "secret1": {
        "key1": "value1",
        "key2": "value2"
    },
    "secret2": {
        "key3": "value3",
        "key4": "value4"
    }
}

Response Codes

Examples

curl http://localhost:3500/v1.0/secrets/vault/bulk

{
    "key1": {
        "key1": "value1"
    },
    "key2": {
        "key2": "value2"
    }
}
