# secret inspect
```Markdown
Usage: docker secret inspect [OPTIONS] SECRET [SECRET...]
Display detailed information on one or more secrets
Options:
-f, --format string Format the output using the given Go template
--help Print usage
```
## Description
Inspects the specified secret. This command has to be run targeting a manager
node.
By default, this renders all results in a JSON array. If a format is specified,
the given template will be executed for each result.
Go's [text/template](http://golang.org/pkg/text/template/) package
describes all the details of the format.
For detailed information about using secrets, refer to [manage sensitive data with Docker secrets](https://docs.docker.com/engine/swarm/secrets/).
## Examples
### Inspect a secret by name or ID
You can inspect a secret, either by its *name*, or *ID*
For example, given the following secret:
```bash
$ docker secret ls
ID NAME CREATED UPDATED
eo7jnzguqgtpdah3cm5srfb97 my_secret 3 minutes ago 3 minutes ago
```
```none
$ docker secret inspect secret.json
[
{
"ID": "eo7jnzguqgtpdah3cm5srfb97",
"Version": {
"Index": 17
},
"CreatedAt": "2017-03-24T08:15:09.735271783Z",
"UpdatedAt": "2017-03-24T08:15:09.735271783Z",
"Spec": {
"Name": "my_secret",
"Labels": {
"env": "dev",
"rev": "20170324"
}
}
}
]
```
### Formatting
You can use the --format option to obtain specific information about a
secret. The following example command outputs the creation time of the
secret.
```bash
$ docker secret inspect --format='{{.CreatedAt}}' eo7jnzguqgtpdah3cm5srfb97
2017-03-24 08:15:09.735271783 +0000 UTC
```
