Enable a disabled regional secret version

This page describes how to enable a disabled secret version so that you can access the version and the secret data that it contains.

Required roles

To get the permissions that you need to enable a disabled secret version, ask your administrator to grant you the Secret Manager Secret Version Manager ( roles/secretmanager.secretVersionManager ) IAM role on a secret. For more information about granting roles, see Manage access to projects, folders, and organizations .

You might also be able to get the required permissions through custom roles or other predefined roles .

Enable a disabled secret version

To enable a disabled secret version, use one of the following methods:

Console

  1. In the Google Cloud console, go to the Secret Manager page.

    Go to Secret Manager

  2. On the Secret Manager page, click the Regional secrets tab, and then click a secret to access its versions.

  3. On the secret details page, in the Versions tab, select the disabled secret version that you want to enable.

  4. Click Actions , and then click Enable .

  5. In the confirmation dialog that appears, click Enable selected versions .

gcloud

Before using any of the command data below, make the following replacements:

  • VERSION_ID : the ID of the secret version
  • SECRET_ID : the ID of the secret
  • LOCATION : the Google Cloud location of the secret

Execute the following command:

Linux, macOS, or Cloud Shell

gcloud  
secrets  
versions  
 enable 
  
 VERSION_ID 
  
--secret = 
 SECRET_ID 
  
--location = 
 LOCATION 

Windows (PowerShell)

gcloud  
secrets  
versions  
 enable 
  
 VERSION_ID 
  
--secret = 
 SECRET_ID 
  
--location = 
 LOCATION 

Windows (cmd.exe)

gcloud  
secrets  
versions  
 enable 
  
 VERSION_ID 
  
--secret = 
 SECRET_ID 
  
--location = 
 LOCATION 

REST

Before using any of the request data, make the following replacements:

  • LOCATION : the Google Cloud location of the secret
  • PROJECT_ID : the Google Cloud project ID
  • SECRET_ID : the ID of the secret
  • VERSION_ID : the ID of the secret version

HTTP method and URL:

POST https://secretmanager. LOCATION 
.rep.googleapis.com/v1/projects/ PROJECT_ID 
/locations/ LOCATION 
/secrets/ SECRET_ID 
/versions/ VERSION_ID 
:enable

Request JSON body:

{}

To send your request, choose one of these options:

curl

Save the request body in a file named request.json , and execute the following command:

curl -X POST \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $(gcloud auth print-access-token)" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8" \
-d @request.json \
"https://secretmanager. LOCATION .rep.googleapis.com/v1/projects/ PROJECT_ID /locations/ LOCATION /secrets/ SECRET_ID /versions/ VERSION_ID :enable"

PowerShell

Save the request body in a file named request.json , and execute the following command:

$cred = gcloud auth print-access-token
$headers = @{ "Authorization" = "Bearer $cred" }

Invoke-WebRequest `
-Method POST `
-Headers $headers `
-ContentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8" `
-InFile request.json `
-Uri "https://secretmanager. LOCATION .rep.googleapis.com/v1/projects/ PROJECT_ID /locations/ LOCATION /secrets/ SECRET_ID /versions/ VERSION_ID :enable" | Select-Object -Expand Content

You should receive a JSON response similar to the following:

{
  "name": "projects/ PROJECT_ID 
/locations/ LOCATION 
/secrets/ SECRET_ID 
/versions/ VERSION_ID 
",
  "createTime": "2024-09-02T07:16:34.566706Z",
  "state": "ENABLED",
  "etag": "\"16214547e7583e\""
}
