Secret

Note

This feature is at the Preview stage.

A secret is a set of versions that store the connection's secure data. A version contains sets of keys and values. A key is a non-secret name that identifies a value. A value is secret information about a connection.
You can set up access to secrets using Yandex Identity and Access Management. The roles available for different use cases are described in the Access management in Yandex MetaData Hub section.

Secrets are stored in Yandex Lockbox. To see which secrets store the connection information, select Lockbox in the list of services in your directory. The Secrets page will list the secrets whose names match the connection IDs.

You can set up access to versions of a secret in addition to access to the secret itself. To do this, you need to assign the lockbox.admin or lockbox.payloadViewer role. For more information about managing access, see Yandex Lockbox access management: What roles do I need.
