title: Using secrets with GitHub Actions
description: Example using secret mounts with GitHub Actions
keywords: ci, github actions, gha, buildkit, buildx, secret
---
In the following example uses and exposes the [`GITHUB_TOKEN` secret](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/security-guides/automatic-token-authentication#about-the-github_token-secret)
as provided by GitHub in your workflow.
First, create a `Dockerfile` that uses the secret:
```dockerfile
# syntax=docker/dockerfile:1
FROM alpine
RUN --mount=type=secret,id=github_token \
cat /run/secrets/github_token
```
In this example, the secret name is `github_token`. The following workflow
exposes this secret using the `secrets` input:
```yaml
name: ci
on:
push:
branches:
- "main"
jobs:
docker:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
- name: Checkout
uses: actions/checkout@v4
- name: Set up QEMU
uses: docker/setup-qemu-action@v3
- name: Set up Docker Buildx
uses: docker/setup-buildx-action@v3
- name: Build
uses: docker/build-push-action@v5
with:
context: .
platforms: linux/amd64,linux/arm64
tags: user/app:latest
secrets: |
"github_token=${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}"
```
> **Note**
>
> You can also expose a secret file to the build with the `secret-files` input:
>
> ```yaml
> secret-files: |
> "MY_SECRET=./secret.txt"
> ```
If you're using [GitHub secrets](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/security-guides/encrypted-secrets)
and need to handle multi-line value, you will need to place the key-value pair
between quotes:
```yaml
secrets: |
"MYSECRET=${{ secrets.GPG_KEY }}"
GIT_AUTH_TOKEN=abcdefghi,jklmno=0123456789
"MYSECRET=aaaaaaaa
bbbbbbb
ccccccccc"
FOO=bar
"EMPTYLINE=aaaa
bbbb
ccc"
"JSON_SECRET={""key1"":""value1"",""key2"":""value2""}"
```
| Key | Value |
| ---------------- | ----------------------------------- |
| `MYSECRET` | `***********************` |
| `GIT_AUTH_TOKEN` | `abcdefghi,jklmno=0123456789` |
| `MYSECRET` | `aaaaaaaa\nbbbbbbb\nccccccccc` |
| `FOO` | `bar` |
| `EMPTYLINE` | `aaaa\n\nbbbb\nccc` |
| `JSON_SECRET` | `{"key1":"value1","key2":"value2"}` |

> Double escapes are needed for quote signs.
