# Secrets Store
The Secrets Store enables users to store value. A user can choose if a value needs to be concealed or not.
A secret remains unrevealed during stream execution. To read and use a secret in a stream, the node "*Get Secret*" should be used.
## Create a secret
Go to the Space where your secret will be needed. Navigate to the "*Secrets Store"* in the menu on the left side. A list of all secrets available in this Space appears.
* Click on the button "*+ Create secret*" in the upper right quarter of the UI
* Assign a unique name to your secret
* Fill in a value
* Click on the padlock-icon to close it and conceal the value, if needed
* Click on "*Create*" to finish the process and create the secret
The secret is now visible in the list, and when chosen, the value is concealed by asterisks.
Use the padlock icon to conceal the value in lists and logs
