Transmitting a secret to Yandex Serverless Containers
Note
This feature is in the Preview stage.
To provide the container with access to the secret, specify a service account with the following roles in the container parameters:
lockbox.payloadViewer
to access the secret (see Granting permissions to access a secret).kms.keys.encrypterDecrypter
to access the encryption key if the secret was created using a Yandex Key Management Service key (see Granting permissions to access an encryption key).
A Lockbox secret transmitted to a container is cached in Serverless Containers. As soon as the service account can no longer access the secret, the container may store it for up to 5 minutes.
A new revision of a container is created when Yandex Lockbox secrets are transmitted. You cannot transmit secrets to an existing revision.
-
In the management console
, go to the folder with your container. -
Open Serverless Containers.
-
Select a container you want to transmit a secret to.
-
Go to the Editor tab.
-
In the window that opens, under Image settings, in the Lockbox secrets field, specify:
- Name of the environment variable to store the secret.
- Secret ID.
- Secret version ID.
- Key of one of the key-value pairs in the secret version.
-
Click Add.
You can transmit multiple secrets to a container. To do this, click Add.
-
Click Create revision. A new container revision with the specified secrets will be created.
If you do not have the Yandex Cloud command line interface yet, install and initialize it.
The folder specified in the CLI profile is used by default. You can specify a different folder using the --folder-name
or --folder-id
parameter.
To transmit Yandex Lockbox secrets to a container, run this command:
Warning
If the secrets were already sent to the previous revision, they will be overwritten.
yc serverless container revision deploy \
--container-name test \
--image cr.yandex/<registry_ID>/repository:tag \
--cores 1 \
--memory 1GB \
--service-account-id <service_account_ID> \
--secret environment-variable=<environment_variable_name>,id=<secret_ID>,version-id=<secret_version_ID>,key=<secret_key>
Where:
-
--container-name
: Container name. -
--image
: Docker image URL. -
--cores
: Number of cores available to the container. -
--memory
: Required memory. The default value is 128 MB. -
--service-account-id
: ID of the service account with thelockbox.payloadViewer
role. -
--secret
:environment-variable
: Name of the environment variable that will store the secret.id
: Secret ID.version-id
: Secret version ID.key
: Key of one of the key-value pairs in the secret version.
You can transmit multiple secrets to a container. To do this, specify the
--secret
parameter as many times as needed.
If you don't have Terraform, install it and configure the Yandex Cloud provider.
-
Open the Terraform configuration file and add the
secrets
section to the function description:resource "yandex_serverless_container" "test-container" { name = "<container_name>" memory = <memory_amount> service_account_id = "<service_account_ID>" secrets { id = "<secret_ID>" version_id = "secret_version_ID>" key = "<secret_1_key>" environment_variable = "<environment_variable_1_name>" } secrets { id = "<secret_ID>" version_id = "<secret_version_ID>" key = "<secret_2_key>" environment_variable = "<environment_variable_2_name>" } image { url = "<Docker_image_URL>" } }
Where:
secrets
: Section with secret settings. It contains the following parameters:id
: Secret ID. This is a required parameter.version_id
: Secret version ID. This is a required parameter.key
: Key of one of the secret version's key-value pairs that will be stored in the environment variable. This is a required parameter.environment_variable

Apply the configuration changes:
terraform apply
-
Confirm the changes: type
yes
in the terminal and press Enter.
-
You can check the function update and configuration in the management console
To transmit a Yandex Lockbox secret to a container, use the deployRevision REST API method for the Container resource or the ContainerService/DeployRevision gRPC API call.
