read - 1Password Developer

Read the value of the field in 1Password specified by a secret reference. Learn more about secret references and query parameters.

op read <reference> [flags]

Flags

    --file-mode filemode   Set filemode for the output file. It is ignored without the --out-file flag. (default 0600)
-f, --force                Do not prompt for confirmation.
-n, --no-newline           Do not print a new line after the secret.
-o, --out-file string      Write the secret to a file instead of stdout.

Examples

Print the secret saved in the field password, on the item db, in the vault app-prod:

op read op://app-prod/db/password

Use a secret reference with a query parameter to retrieve a one-time password:

op read "op://app-prod/db/one-time password?attribute=otp"

Use a secret reference with a query parameter to get an SSH key’s private key in the OpenSSH format:

op read "op://app-prod/ssh key/private key?ssh-format=openssh"

Save the SSH key found on the item ssh in the server vault as a new file key.pem on your computer:

op read --out-file ./key.pem op://app-prod/server/ssh/key.pem

Use op read in a command with secret references in place of plaintext secrets:

docker login -u $(op read op://prod/docker/username) -p $(op read op://prod/docker/password)
