Querying the Secret Version and Value

Function

This API is used to query information about a specified secret version and the plaintext secret value in the version. Only secrets in the ENABLED state can be queried. The value in the latest version of a secret can be accessed through /v1/{project_id}/secrets/{secret_id}/versions/latest.

Debugging

You can debug this API through automatic authentication in API Explorer or use the SDK sample code generated by API Explorer.
