Actions7
Overview
This node interacts with the Akeyless API to retrieve rotated secret values stored in Akeyless. It is useful for securely accessing secrets that are periodically rotated for enhanced security, such as API keys, passwords, or tokens. For example, it can be used in workflows that require up-to-date credentials without manual intervention.
Use Case Examples
- Fetching the latest rotated API key for a service before making an API call.
- Retrieving a rotated database password to update connection settings dynamically.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Secret Name | The name or path of the secret in Akeyless to retrieve. |
| Ignore Cache | Whether to ignore cached secret values and fetch a fresh value from Akeyless. |
| Additional Fields | Optional additional parameters such as request timeout in milliseconds. |
Output
JSON
json- The JSON response containing the rotated secret value retrieved from Akeyless.
Dependencies
- Requires Akeyless API credentials (access ID and access key or token) for authentication.
Troubleshooting
- Authentication failures due to missing or incorrect credentials. Ensure valid Akeyless API credentials are provided.
- Timeout errors if the request takes longer than the specified timeout. Adjust the timeout in additional fields if needed.
- Errors indicating unknown operation if the operation parameter is incorrect; ensure 'Get Rotated Secret Value' operation is selected.
