# GitHub actions
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Workflows in GitHub Actions can make use of secrets stored in Vault by using a
 | 
						|
[`vault-action`](https://github.com/marketplace/actions/hashicorp-vault) step.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Example
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Here is an example `vault-action` step in a workflow:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```yaml
 | 
						|
jobs:
 | 
						|
    build:
 | 
						|
        # ...
 | 
						|
        steps:
 | 
						|
            # ...
 | 
						|
            - name: Import Secrets
 | 
						|
              uses: hashicorp/vault-action@v2.4.0
 | 
						|
              with:
 | 
						|
                url: https://vault.example.com:8200
 | 
						|
                token: ${{ secrets.VAULT_TOKEN }}
 | 
						|
                caCertificate: ${{ secrets.VAULT_CA_CERT }}
 | 
						|
                secrets: |
 | 
						|
                    secret/data/ci/aws accessKey | AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID ;
 | 
						|
                    secret/data/ci/aws secretKey | AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY ;
 | 
						|
                    secret/data/ci npm_token
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
This example will authenticate to Vault instance at `https://vault.example.com:8200` with the GitHub secrets defined in
 | 
						|
`VAULT_TOKEN` and `VAULT_CA_CERT`, and will add environment variables available for next steps in the workflow:
 | 
						|
-  The secret at path `secret/data/ci/aws` with the key `accessKey` available in the environment variable `AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID`
 | 
						|
-  The secret at path `secret/data/ci/aws` with the key `secretKey` available in the environment variable `AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY`
 | 
						|
-  The secret at path `secret/data/ci` with the key `npm_token` available in the environment variable `NPM_TOKEN`
 | 
						|
 |
