# Get a secret

## `GET /v1/projects/{projectId}/secrets/{secretName}`

Returns a specific secret by name. The secret value is always masked.

### Path parameters

- `projectId` (integer, required): The ID of the project
- `secretName` (string, required): The name of the secret

### Header parameters

- `Authorization` (string, required): `Bearer <token>`. [Authentication](https://spice.ai/docs/cloud/api/management#authentication) lists the tokens it accepts.
- `X-Org-Name` (string, optional): The organization to act on, by handle. Omit it to act on the organization the credential is bound to; sending it blank is a 400, not the same as omitting it. A user credential may name any organization its owner belongs to; a machine credential is pinned to its own. A portal session token is bound to none, so it must send this header on every route but `GET /v1/orgs` (400 `org_assertion_required` otherwise). Pattern: `^[A-Za-z0-9._-]{1,255}$`.

### Example request

```bash
curl "https://api.spice.ai/v1/projects/<projectId>/secrets/<secretName>" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer <token>"
```

```http
GET /v1/projects/<projectId>/secrets/<secretName> HTTP/1.1
Host: api.spice.ai
Authorization: Bearer <token>
```
