Reading a secret back?

[Albert So]

Hi all,

I have a n00b question here. 

I've looked at the docs and examples but cannot seem to find a way to read a secret back. Did I miss it in the docs somehow? 

I don't see any command to do this in the CLI. I've tried list and describe. 

The GET call to /secret/${secretname} seems to be the closest but the secret in the response seems encrypted or is a hash:

$ curl --cert ./server/src/test/resources/clients/client.p12:ponies -k -X GET --header "Accept: application/json" "https://localhost:4444/secret/mySecretName"
{"name":"mySecretName","secret":"YWJjZGVmZwo=","secretLength":8,"creationDate":"2016-08-15T21:39:43.000Z"}

Thanks in advance,

Albert

It's just base64 encoded.   base64 decode YWJjZGVmZwo= to get abcdefg

Ahhh, thanks! 

It would be good to put this in the top level examples somewhere.
