This guide walks you through setting up Enkryptify from scratch. By the end, you’ll have a workspace with a project, environment and your first secret.

​
Prerequisites

  • A Google or Microsoft account
  • A project to manage secrets for

​
Steps

1

Sign up

Go to app.enkryptify.com and sign in with your Google or Microsoft account. If this is your first time, an account is created automatically.
2

Create a workspace

After signing in, you’ll be guided through onboarding. Give your workspace a name, this is typically your company or team name. You can always change the name later. The workspace URL slug is auto-generated from the name but can be customized.
3

Create a project

A project represents a single application or service. Create one for the app whose secrets you want to manage (e.g. “api-service” or “web-app”). Projects are organized under teams.Your project comes with default environments (e.g. development, staging, production).
4

Add your first secret

Navigate to your project’s secrets page. Click Add Secret, enter a key name (e.g. DATABASE_URL) and set a value for each environment.Secret names can contain letters, numbers, underscores and hyphens.
5

Invite your team

Go to your workspace members page and invite colleagues by email. Assign them a role:
  • Admin — full control over the workspace
  • Developer — can manage secrets but not workspace settings or members
  • Member — read-only access to secrets
You can also restrict access to specific teams, projects or environments. See Scoped access for details.
6

Connect your workflow

Choose how to use your secrets:
  • Local development — Install the CLI and run ek run -- npm run start to inject secrets as environment variables.
  • Cloud providers — Set up a sync to push secrets to GitHub, Vercel, AWS, …
