Managing secret versions

In addition to the secret contents, a secret version contains information about the state of the version and some other metadata. This topic describes how to manage a secret's versions. A secret version can be in one of the following states at any given time:

• Enabled - In this state, the secret version can be accessed and described. This is the default state for a new secret version.

• Disabled - In this state, the secret version cannot be accessed, but the secret's contents still exist. The secret version can be re-enabled to restore access.

• Destroyed - In this state, the secret version's contents are discarded. The secret version cannot be changed to another state.

Get a secret version

When you get a secret version, all of the secret version's metadata except for contents of the secret version.

Getting a secret version requires the roles/secretmanager.viewer IAM role on the secret version, parent secret, or parent project.

Web UI

1. Go to the Secret Manager page in the Cloud Console.

   Go to the Secret Manager page

2. On the Secret Manager page, click on the Name of a secret.

3. On the Secret details page, in the Versions table, locate a secret version to get.

4. Find the ID of the version in the table and read its metadata.

Command-line

To use Secret Manager on the command line, first Install or upgrade to version 281.0.0 or higher of the Cloud SDK.

$ gcloud secrets versions describe version-id --secret="secret-id"

Destroy a secret version

Destroying a secret version is permanent and cannot be undone. It is strongly recommended that you disable a secret version before destroying it. Secret Manager does not support soft deletes.

Destroying a secret version requires the roles/secretmanager.admin IAM role on the secret version, parent secret, or parent project.

Web UI

1. Go to the Secret Manager page in the Cloud Console.

   Go to the Secret Manager page

2. On the Secret Manager page, click on the Name of a secret.

3. On the Secret details page, in the Versions table, locate a secret version to access.

4. In the Actions column, click View more.

5. Click Destroy from the menu.

6. In the Destroy secret version dialog, enter the name of the secret.

7. Click the Destroy selected versions button.

Command-line

To use Secret Manager on the command line, first Install or upgrade to version 281.0.0 or higher of the Cloud SDK.

$ gcloud secrets versions destroy version-id --secret="secret-id"
