Dapr provides a dedicated secrets API that allows developers to retrieve secrets from a secrets store. In this quickstart, you:
Select your preferred language-specific Dapr SDK before proceeding with the Quickstart.
For this example, you will need:
Clone the sample provided in the Quickstarts repo.
git clone https://github.com/dapr/quickstarts.git
In a terminal window, navigate to the order-processor
directory.
cd secrets_management/python/sdk/order-processor
Install the dependencies:
pip3 install -r requirements.txt
Run the order-processor
service alongside a Dapr sidecar.
dapr run --app-id order-processor --resources-path ../../../components/ -- python3 app.py
Note: Since Python3.exe is not defined in Windows, you may need to use
python app.py
instead ofpython3 app.py
.

Notice how the order-processor
service below points to:
DAPR_SECRET_STORE
defined in the local-secret-store.yaml
component.secrets.json
.# app.py
DAPR_SECRET_STORE = 'localsecretstore'
SECRET_NAME = 'secret'
with DaprClient() as client:
secret = client.get_secret(store_name=DAPR_SECRET_STORE, key=SECRET_NAME)
logging.info('Fetched Secret: %s', secret.secret)
local-secret-store.yaml
component
DAPR_SECRET_STORE
is defined in the local-secret-store.yaml
component file, located in secrets_management/components:
apiVersion: dapr.io/v1alpha1
kind: Component
metadata:
name: localsecretstore
namespace: default
spec:
type: secretstores.local.file
version: v1
metadata:
- name: secretsFile
value: secrets.json
- name: nestedSeparator
value: ":"
In the YAML file:
metadata/name
is how your application references the component (called DAPR_SECRET_STORE
in the code sample).spec/metadata
defines the connection to the secret used by the component.secrets.json
file
SECRET_NAME
is defined in the secrets.json
file, located in secrets_management/python/sdk/order-processor:
{
"secret": "YourPasskeyHere"
}
As specified in the application code above, the order-processor
service retrieves the secret via the Dapr secret store and displays it in the console.
Order-processor output:
== APP == INFO:root:Fetched Secret: {'secret': 'YourPasskeyHere'}
For this example, you will need:
Clone the sample provided in the Quickstarts repo.
git clone https://github.com/dapr/quickstarts.git
In a terminal window, navigate to the order-processor
directory.

As specified in the application code above, the order-processor
service retrieves the secret via the Dapr secret store and displays it in the console.
Order-processor output:
