Setting the User Defined Secrets Values

PreviousUser Supplied SecretsNextExecuting the Workflow

Last updated 10 months ago

To set the values for these “secret” variables, click on the Settings option from the top menu on the repository page. From the Settings page, there is a set of menu options on the left. Look for the Secrets and variables option and click on it to reveal its drop-down menu. Fromt hat drop-down menu you will see the Actions option.

Clicking on Actions brings up the Actions secrets and variables page where you can create the 6 required secrets and set their values. Initially, there may be no secrets set. To define the first one, click on New repository secret.

This opens up a form where you can enter the name of the secret variable and its value. After entering the secret name and value, click on Add secret to save this name and value .

Repeat this process to set the other 5 secrets. When complete you will see all 6 values for this repository.

Review the video below to see how this sequence occurs with GitHub:

With the secrets set, the workflow is ready to be executed.
