Secrets

Node.js - secret.put()

Store a new secret value, creating a new version to store the value.

import { secret } from '@nitric/sdk';

const keyRef = secret('apiKey').for('put');

await keyRef.put('6c3199a3-094e-4797-bfc9-9ee2a7839286');

Parameters


secret required string | Uint8Array

The new secret value to store in the secrets manager.


Notes

A new secret version is always created when calling put(), the versions will automatically be provided a unique id. This behavior is dependent on the underlying secrets manager.

Examples

Store a new secret value

import { secret } from '@nitric/sdk';

const keyRef = secret('apiKey').for('put');

await keyRef.put('6c3199a3-094e-4797-bfc9-9ee2a7839286');

Get the id of a new secret version

Calling put() returns a promise to a reference to the new secret version. Storing the ID of the new version can be useful if you need to retrieve that specific value again in future using version.access()

import { secret } from '@nitric/sdk';

const keyRef = secret('apiKey').for('put');

const newApiKeyVersionRef = await keyRef.put(
  '6c3199a3-094e-4797-bfc9-9ee2a7839286'
);

const versionId = newApiKeyVersionRef.version;
