Akeyless

Interact with Akeyless API - Get static, rotated, or dynamic secrets

Overview

This node interacts with the Akeyless API to create a folder within the Akeyless secret management system. It allows users to specify the folder name and its accessibility type (Regular or Personal). This operation is useful for organizing secrets into folders for better management and access control.

Use Case Examples

  1. Creating a new folder named 'ProjectSecrets' with regular accessibility to organize project-related secrets.
  2. Creating a personal folder for storing user-specific secrets securely.

Properties

Name Meaning
Folder Name The name of the folder to be created, required for folder creation.
Accessibility The accessibility type of the folder, which can be 'Regular' or 'Personal' to define access control.
Additional Fields Optional additional settings such as request timeout in milliseconds.

Output

JSON

  • json - The response data from the Akeyless API after creating the folder, typically including confirmation and folder details.

Dependencies

  • Requires Akeyless API credentials for authentication and access.

Troubleshooting

  • Common issues include authentication failures if API credentials are incorrect or missing.
  • Timeout errors if the request takes longer than the specified timeout period; increasing the timeout in additional fields may help.
  • Errors related to folder name conflicts or invalid folder names as per Akeyless API constraints.
