mz secret

The mz secret command manages secrets in a region.

create

Create a new secret.

mz secret create <NAME> [options...]

The secret’s value is read from the standard input stream.

By default, the command returns an error if a secret with the provided name already exists. Pass --force to instead update the existing secret with the new value, if it exists.

NOTE: Using this command is preferred to executing CREATE SECRET directly, as it avoids leaving the secret’s value in your shell history.
