GCP Secret Manager Sync

Learn how to configure a GCP Secret Manager Sync for Infisical.

Prerequisites:

• Set up and add secrets to Infisical Cloud
• Create a GCP Connection with the required Secret Sync permissions
• Enable Cloud Resource Manager API and Secret Manager API on your GCP project

Infisical UI

1. Navigate to Project > Integrations and select the Secret Syncs tab. Click on the Add Sync button.

2. Select the GCP Secret Manager option.

3. Configure the Source from where secrets should be retrieved, then click Next.

   • Environment: The project environment to retrieve secrets from.
   • Secret Path: The folder path to retrieve secrets from.

If you need to sync secrets from multiple folder locations, check out secret imports.

4. Configure the Destination to where secrets should be deployed, then click Next.

   • GCP Connection: The GCP Connection to authenticate with.
   • Project: The GCP project to sync with.

5. Configure the Sync Options to specify how secrets should be synced, then click Next.

   • Initial Sync Behavior: Determines how Infisical should resolve the initial sync.
     • Overwrite Destination Secrets: Removes any secrets at the destination endpoint not present in Infisical.
     • Import Secrets (Prioritize Infisical): Imports secrets from the destination endpoint before syncing, prioritizing values from Infisical over GCP Secret Manager when keys conflict.
     • Import Secrets (Prioritize GCP Secret Manager): Imports secrets from the destination endpoint before syncing, prioritizing values from GCP Secret Manager over Infisical when keys conflict.
   • Auto-Sync Enabled: If enabled, secrets will automatically be synced from the source location when changes occur. Disable to enforce manual syncing only.
   • Disable Secret Deletion: If enabled, Infisical will not remove secrets from the sync destination. Enable this option if you intend to manage some secrets manually outside of Infisical.

6. Configure the Details of your GCP Secret Manager Sync, then click Next.

   • Name: The name of your sync. Must be slug-friendly.
   • Description: An optional description for your sync.

7. Review your Secret Manager Sync configuration, then click Create Sync.

8. If enabled, your GCP Secret Manager Sync will begin syncing your secrets to the destination endpoint.
