secrets configuration provider - reload

Ask your question here

Hi All,

i'm using the secrets configuration provider like

var builder = WebApplication.CreateBuilder(args);
builder.WebHost.ConfigureAppConfiguration(config =>
{
    var daprClient = new DaprClientBuilder().Build();
    var secretDescriptors = new List<DaprSecretDescriptor>
    {
        new DaprSecretDescriptor("eshopsecrets")
    };
    config.AddDaprSecretStore("secret-store", secretDescriptors, daprClient);
});

is there a way or best practice to reload in case of secrets change? for now i see it's only on app startup. the azure keyvault configuration provider there is a reloadinterval. is something similar maybe? https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/security/key-vault-configuration?view=aspnetcore-7.0

thanks! Levente Pop

Currently, there isn't a way to have it reload. If you expect your secrets to change overtime, you can either fetch them manually using the secretstore component or move to the configuration API which does support this.

However, I do feel like this is a bit limiting because your secrets could change and you may not want them in raw configuration. I think this would be a valid feature to request for the extension.
