create_secret Method

Creates a new secret.

Syntax

def create_secret(secret_name: str) -> None: ...

Remarks

This method creates a new secret with the given SecretName. The secret data is taken from the specified local_file or the secret_data property; it may be up to 65536 bytes in length.

The value passed for SecretName must consist solely of alphanumeric characters, hyphens (-), and underscores (_); and may be up to 255 characters in length.

If there are any items in the Label* properties, they will be applied to the newly-created secret. Secrets may have up to 64 labels.

Note that this method makes two requests: the first one creates the empty secret itself (which is just a container for secret versions), and the second one creates an initial secret version with the actual secret data (as if create_version had been called). The Id of the initial secret version is always 1.
