Creates a new Secret containing no SecretVersions.

Scopes

You will need authorization for the https://www.googleapis.com/auth/cloud-platform scope to make a valid call.

If unset, the scope for this method defaults to https://www.googleapis.com/auth/cloud-platform. You can set the scope for this method like this: secretmanager1 --scope <scope> projects locations-secrets-create ...

Required Scalar Argument

  • <parent> (string)
    • Required. The resource name of the project to associate with the Secret, in the format projects/* or projects/*/locations/*.

Required Request Value

The request value is a data-structure with various fields. Each field may be a simple scalar or another data-structure. In the latter case it is advised to set the field-cursor to the data-structure's field to specify values more concisely.

For example, a structure like this:

Secret:
  annotations: { string: string }
  create-time: string
  etag: string
  expire-time: string
  labels: { string: string }
  name: string
  replication:
    automatic:
      customer-managed-encryption:
        kms-key-name: string
  rotation:
    next-rotation-time: string
    rotation-period: string
  ttl: string
  version-aliases: { string: string }

can be set completely with the following arguments which are assumed to be executed in the given order. Note how the cursor position is adjusted to the respective structures, allowing simple field names to be used most of the time.

  • -r . annotations=key=no
    • Optional. Custom metadata about the secret. Annotations are distinct from various forms of labels. Annotations exist to allow client tools to store their own state information without requiring a database. Annotation keys must be between 1 and 63 characters long, have a UTF-8 encoding of maximum 128 bytes, begin and end with an alphanumeric character ([a-z0-9A-Z]), and may have dashes (-), underscores (_), dots (.), and alphanumerics in between these symbols. The total size of annotation keys and values must be less than 16KiB.
    • the value will be associated with the given key
  • create-time=ipsum
    • Output only. The time at which the Secret was created.
  • etag=voluptua.
    • Optional. Etag of the currently stored Secret.
  • expire-time=at
    • Optional. Timestamp in UTC when the Secret is scheduled to expire. This is always provided on output, regardless of what was sent on input.
  • labels=key=sanctus
    • The labels assigned to this Secret. Label keys must be between 1 and 63 characters long, have a UTF-8 encoding of maximum 128 bytes, and must conform to the following PCRE regular expression: \p{Ll}\p{Lo}{0,62} Label values must be between 0 and 63 characters long, have a UTF-8 encoding of maximum 128 bytes, and must conform to the following PCRE regular expression: [\p{Ll}\p{Lo}\p{N}_-]{0,63} No more than 64 labels can be assigned to a given resource.
    • the value will be associated with the given key
  • name=sed
    • Output only. The resource name of the Secret in the format projects/*/secrets/*.

  • replication.automatic.customer-managed-encryption kms-key-name=amet.

    • Required. The resource name of the Cloud KMS CryptoKey used to encrypt secret payloads. For secrets using the UserManaged replication policy type, Cloud KMS CryptoKeys must reside in the same location as the replica location. For secrets using the Automatic replication policy type, Cloud KMS CryptoKeys must reside in global. The expected format is projects/*/locations/*/keyRings/*/cryptoKeys/*.

  • ....rotation next-rotation-time=takimata

    • Optional. Timestamp in UTC at which the Secret is scheduled to rotate. Cannot be set to less than 300s (5 min) in the future and at most 3153600000s (100 years). next_rotation_time MUST be set if rotation_period is set.

  • rotation-period=amet.

    • Input only. The Duration between rotation notifications. Must be in seconds and at least 3600s (1h) and at most 3153600000s (100 years). If rotation_period is set, next_rotation_time must be set. next_rotation_time will be advanced by this period when the service automatically sends rotation notifications.

  • .. ttl=duo

    • Input only. The TTL for the Secret.
  • version-aliases=key=ipsum
    • Optional. Mapping from version alias to version name. A version alias is a string with a maximum length of 63 characters and can contain uppercase and lowercase letters, numerals, and the hyphen (-) and underscore ('_') characters. An alias string must start with a letter and cannot be the string 'latest' or 'NEW'. No more than 50 aliases can be assigned to a given secret. Version-Alias pairs will be viewable via GetSecret and modifiable via UpdateSecret. Access by alias is only be supported on GetSecretVersion and AccessSecretVersion.
    • the value will be associated with the given key

About Cursors

The cursor position is key to comfortably set complex nested structures. The following rules apply:

  • The cursor position is always set relative to the current one, unless the field name starts with the . character. Fields can be nested such as in -r f.s.o .
  • The cursor position is set relative to the top-level structure if it starts with ., e.g. -r .s.s
  • You can also set nested fields without setting the cursor explicitly. For example, to set a value relative to the current cursor position, you would specify -r struct.sub_struct=bar.
  • You can move the cursor one level up by using ... Each additional . moves it up one additional level. E.g. ... would go three levels up.

Optional Output Flags

The method's return value a JSON encoded structure, which will be written to standard output by default.

  • -o out
    • out specifies the destination to which to write the server's result to. It will be a JSON-encoded structure. The destination may be - to indicate standard output, or a filepath that is to contain the received bytes. If unset, it defaults to standard output.

Optional Method Properties

You may set the following properties to further configure the call. Please note that -p is followed by one or more key-value-pairs, and is called like this -p k1=v1 k2=v2 even though the listing below repeats the -p for completeness.

  • -p secret-id=string
    • Required. This must be unique within the project. A secret ID is a string with a maximum length of 255 characters and can contain uppercase and lowercase letters, numerals, and the hyphen (-) and underscore (_) characters.

Optional General Properties

The following properties can configure any call, and are not specific to this method.

  • -p $-xgafv=string

    • V1 error format.

  • -p access-token=string

    • OAuth access token.

  • -p alt=string

    • Data format for response.

  • -p callback=string

    • JSONP

  • -p fields=string

    • Selector specifying which fields to include in a partial response.

  • -p key=string

    • API key. Your API key identifies your project and provides you with API access, quota, and reports. Required unless you provide an OAuth 2.0 token.

  • -p oauth-token=string

    • OAuth 2.0 token for the current user.

  • -p pretty-print=boolean

    • Returns response with indentations and line breaks.

  • -p quota-user=string

    • Available to use for quota purposes for server-side applications. Can be any arbitrary string assigned to a user, but should not exceed 40 characters.

  • -p upload-type=string

    • Legacy upload protocol for media (e.g. "media", "multipart").

  • -p upload-protocol=string

    • Upload protocol for media (e.g. "raw", "multipart").
