How to fetch the secrets from Amazon Secrets Manager using Amazon Secrets Manager Properties Provider

QUESTION

ANSWER

1. In your Application, Add the AWS Secrets Manager Properties Provider from Exchange. As shown below, it doesn't contain any operations available as of now. 
2. In the Global Elements, you can find AWS Secret Manager Override Config, Provide all the required values and create the configuration. 
3. Now, To fetch the value of the secret from the AWS secret manager, the properties can be referenced via the following property syntax 

• ${aws-secrets::testSecret} or Mule::p('aws-secrets::testSecret') by calling this property in a Logger or Transform Message or any configuration.
• Here testSecret is the name of the secret in AWS secret manager
• It will retrieve all the values or key/value pairs present under the Secret Name
• You will not be able to fetch a specific value from the secret. You will only be able to fetch all the values in the secret ( or key-value pairs from the secret). Using the transform message, you can make use of the required keys and values.
• Also, If you just need a single value, you can create a secret (in AWS) containing only that value as plaintext/binary and not using the key/value structure. In this case, you will be able to get the single values instead of key-value pairs.
