Use this screenshot to answer the question below:

Where on this page would you click to view a secret located at secret/my-secret?

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: C

In the HashiCorp Vault UI, secrets are organized in a tree-like structure. To view a secret located at secret/my-secret, you would click on the ''secret/'' folder in the tree, then click on the ''my-secret'' file. In this screenshot, the ''secret/'' folder is located at option C. This folder contains the secrets that are stored in the key/value secrets engine, which is the default secrets engine in Vault. The key/value secrets engine allows you to store arbitrary secrets as key/value pairs. The key is the path of the secret, and the value is the data of the secret. For example, the secret located at secret/my-secret has a key of ''my-secret'' and a value of whatever data you stored there.

Okay, let's see. The options mention different letters, but they don't give us any context about what those letters correspond to on the page. I'm going to have to think this through carefully.

Hmm, you're right. This is definitely a tricky one. Hey, I have an idea - let's all just click 'E' and see what happens. What's the worst that could happen?
