**Example 1: To create a secret from credentials in a JSON file**
The following ``create-secret`` example creates a secret from credentials in a file. For more information, see `Loading AWS CLI parameters from a file <https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/userguide/cli-usage-parameters-file.html>`__ in the *AWS CLI User Guide*. ::
aws secretsmanager create-secret \
--name MyTestSecret \
--secret-string file://mycreds.json
Contents of ``mycreds.json``::
{
"engine": "mysql",
"username": "saanvis",
"password": "EXAMPLE-PASSWORD",
"host": "my-database-endpoint.us-west-2.rds.amazonaws.com",
"dbname": "myDatabase",
"port": "3306"
}
Output::
{
"ARN": "arn:aws:secretsmanager:us-west-2:123456789012:secret:MyTestSecret-a1b2c3",
"Name": "MyTestSecret",
"VersionId": "a1b2c3d4-5678-90ab-cdef-EXAMPLE11111"
}

**Example 2: To create a secret**
The following ``create-secret`` example creates a secret with two key-value pairs. When you enter commands in a command shell, there is a risk of the command history being accessed or utilities having access to your command parameters. This is a concern if the command includes the value of a secret. For more information, see `Mitigate the risks of using command-line tools to store secrets <https://docs.aws.amazon.com/secretsmanager/latest/userguide/security_cli-exposure-risks.html>`__ in the *Secrets Manager User Guide*. ::
aws secretsmanager create-secret \
--name MyTestSecret \
--description "My test secret created with the CLI." \
--secret-string "{\"user\":\"diegor\",\"password\":\"EXAMPLE-PASSWORD\"}"
Output::
{
"ARN": "arn:aws:secretsmanager:us-west-2:123456789012:secret:MyTestSecret-a1b2c3",
"Name": "MyTestSecret",
"VersionId": "EXAMPLE1-90ab-cdef-fedc-ba987EXAMPLE"
