# telegraf secrets list

The `telegraf secrets list` command lists known secrets and secret stores.

This command requires your configuration file that contains the secret store definitions you want to access. If the `--config` or `--config-directory` flags are not included in the command, Telegraf checks the [default configuration file location](/telegraf/v1/configuration/#configuration-file-locations).

If you haven’t configured a secret store, use [`telegraf plugins secretstores`](/telegraf/v1/commands/plugins/secretstores/) to list available secret store plugins. View secret store plugin configuration documentation in the [Telegraf GitHub repository](https://github.com/influxdata/telegraf/tree/master/plugins/secretstores).

## Usage

```sh
telegraf [global-flags] secrets list [flags] [SECRET_STORE_ID[ ...[SECRET_STORE_ID]]]
```

## Arguments

| Argument | Description |
| --- | --- |
| SECRET_STORE_ID | ID of the secret store to list secrets from. You can include multiple, space-delimited IDs. If no ID(s) are provided, the command lists secrets from all secret stores. |

## Flags

| Flag |  | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
|  | --reveal-secret | Print secret values |
| -h | --help | Show command help |

*Also see [Telegraf global flags](/telegraf/v1/commands/#telegraf-global-flags).*

## Examples

-   [List secrets and secret stores using the default configuration location](#list-secrets-and-secret-stores-using-the-default-configuration-location)
-   [List secrets and secret stores using a non-default configuration location](#list-secrets-and-secret-stores-using-a-non-default-configuration-location)
-   [List secrets from a specific secret store](#list-secrets-from-a-specific-secret-store)
-   [Show secret values when listing secrets and secret stores](#show-secret-values-when-listing-secrets-and-secret-stores)

### List secrets and secret stores using the default configuration location

The following example assumes the Telegraf configuration file that contains the secret store definition is at the [default location](/telegraf/v1/configuration/#configuration-file-locations).

```sh
telegraf secrets list
```

### List secrets and secret stores using a non-default configuration location

```sh
telegraf --config CUSTOM_CONFIG_PATH secrets list
```

-   Replace `CUSTOM_CONFIG_PATH` with the non-default filepath to your Telegraf configuration file containing your secret store definitions.

### List secrets from a specific secret store

```sh
telegraf secrets list SECRET_STORE_ID
```

-   Replace `SECRET_STORE_ID` with the ID of the secret store to retrieve the secret from.

### Show secret values when listing secrets and secret stores

To print secret values with listing secrets and secret stores, include the `--reveal-secret` flag:

```sh
telegraf secrets list --reveal-secret
```
