Overview

This document is the reference for the YAML grammar used for creating secrets.

A secret along with its contents is created under the current organization and is available in this organization only unless you add it to other organizations. Additionally, a secret is visible to all the users of an organization.

Properties

apiVersion

The apiVersion property defines the version of the YAML grammar that will be used in the current YAML file. Different versions might have different features.

The list of values for apiVersion: v1alpha.

kind

The kind property defines the purpose of the YAML file. For a YAML file that will be used for defining secrets, the value of the kind property should be Secret.

The list of values for kind: Secret.

metadata

The metadata property defines the metadata of the Secrets YAML file. Currently, only the name property is allowed but this might change in future versions.

name in metadata

The value of the name property, which is a string, in the metadata context defines the name of the secret. This name value will be used in the Pipeline YAML file for importing a specific secret or as an argument to the sem delete secret command for deleting a specific secret.

The value of each name property should be unique among all secrets that exist under the same organization and must only contain [a-z], [A-Z] or [0-9] characters, dashes and underscores – space characters are not allowed.

data

The data property, which is compulsory, currently holds a single env_vars property.

env_vars

The env_vars property, which is compulsory, is a list of name and value pairs that allows you to define the names and the values of the environment variables that will be inserted in the current secret.

name in env_vars

The value of the name property under the env_vars property defines the name of an environment variable.

The name of an environment variable should follow these guidelines.

value

The value of the value property defines the value of the environment variable that was previously defined using a name property.

Example

apiVersion: v1alpha
kind: Secret
metadata:
  name: a-secrets-name
data:
  env_vars:
    - name: SECRET_ONE
      value: "This is the value of SECRET_ONE"
    - name: SECRET_TWO
      value: "This is the value of SECRET_TWO"

The previous example defines a secret named a-secrets-name that contains two environment variables named SECRET_ONE and SECRET_TWO with values This is the value of SECRET_ONE and This is the value of SECRET_TWO, respectively.
