+description: Information about the Akeyless secret store component configuration.
+---
+
+## Create the Akeyless component
+
+To setup Akeyless secret store create a component of type `secretstores.akeyless`. See [this guide]({{% ref "setup-secret-store.md#apply-the-configuration" %}}) on how to create and apply a secretstore configuration. See this guide on [referencing secrets]({{% ref component-secrets.md %}}) to retrieve and use the secret with Dapr components.
+
+## Authentication Methods
+
+We currently support the following authentication methods:
+
+### [API Key](https://docs.akeyless.io/docs/api-key)
+
+
+
+```yaml
+apiVersion: dapr.io/v1alpha1
+kind: Component
+metadata:
+  name: akeyless
+spec:
+  type: secretstores.akeyless
+  version: v1
+  metadata:
+  - name: gatewayUrl
+    value: "https://api.akeyless.io"
+  - name: accessId
+    value: "p-123..."
+  - name: accessKey
+    value: "ABCD1233...="
+```
+
+### [AWS IAM](https://docs.akeyless.io/docs/aws-iam)
+
+```yaml
+apiVersion: dapr.io/v1alpha1
+kind: Component
+metadata:
+  name: akeyless
+spec:
+  type: secretstores.akeyless
+  version: v1
+  metadata:
+  - name: gatewayUrl
+    value: "https://api.akeyless.io"
+  - name: accessId
+    value: "p-123..."
+```
+
+### [OAuth2.0/JWT](https://docs.akeyless.io/docs/oauth20jwt)
+
+```yaml
+apiVersion: dapr.io/v1alpha1
+kind: Component
+metadata:
+  name: akeyless
+spec:
+  type: secretstores.akeyless
+  version: v1
+  metadata:
+  - name: gatewayUrl
+    value: "https://api.akeyless.io"
+  - name: accessId
+    value: "p-123..."
+  - name: jwt
+    value: "eyJ..."
+```
+
+### [Kubernetes](https://docs.akeyless.io/docs/kubernetes-auth)
+
+```yaml
+apiVersion: dapr.io/v1alpha1
+kind: Component
+metadata:
+  name: akeyless
+spec:
+  type: secretstores.akeyless
+  version: v1
+  metadata:
+  - name: gatewayUrl
+    value: "http://release-gw.akeyless.svc.cluster.local:8000/api/v2"
+  - name: accessID
+    value: "p-123..."
+  - name: k8sAuthConfigName
+    value: "my-k8s-auth-config"
+  - name: k8sGatewayUrl
+    value: "http://release-gw.akeyless.svc.cluster.local:8000/api/v2"
+  - name: k8sServiceAccountToken
+    value: "eyJ..."
+```
+
+{{% alert title="Warning" color="warning" %}}
+The above examples use secrets as plain strings. It is recommended to use a local secret store such as [Kubernetes secret store]({{% ref kubernetes-secret-store.md %}}) or a [local file]({{% ref file-secret-store.md %}}) to bootstrap secure key storage.

+| `akeylessGWApiURL`   | N        | The Akeyless Gateway API URL. Defaults to https://api.akeyless.io.                                           | `http://gw-release.akeyless.svc.cluster.local:8000/api/v2` |
+| `accessID`           | Y        | The Akeyless Access ID of the authentication method                    | `p-1234567890`    |
+| `accessKey`          | N        | Fill in when using an API Key (`access_key`) authentication method.              | `ABCD1233...=`    |
+| `JWT`                | N        | Fill in a `base64`-encoded string of the JWT when using OAuth2.0/JWT (`jwt`) authentication method                | `eyJ...`          |
+| `k8sAuthConfigName`  | N        | Fill in when using Kubernetes Authentication (`k8s`) authentication method     | `my-k8s-auth-conf`                |
+| `k8sGatewayUrl`      | N        | Fill in when using Kubernetes Authentication (`k8s`) authentication method. If not filled in, will default to value set for `akeylessGWApiURL`. | `http://gw-release.akeyless.svc.cluster.local:8000/api/v2` |
+| `k8sServiceAccountToken`  | N        |  Fill in a `base64`-encoded string of the JWT when using Kubernetes Authentication (`k8s`) authentication method. If not filled in, will read from k8s token in container filesystem | `ej...` |

+
+## Retrieve secrets
+
+You can retrieve secrets from Akeyless using the Dapr secrets API:
+
+```bash
+curl http://localhost:3500/v1.0/secrets/akeyless/my-secret
+```
+
+This will return the secret value stored in Akeyless with the name `my-secret`.
+
+## Setup Akeyless instance
+
+To get started with Akeyless:
+
+1. Sign up for an Akeyless account at [https://www.akeyless.io](https://www.akeyless.io)
+2. Create an Access ID and configure your preferred authentication method
+3. Set up your secrets in the Akeyless.
+4. Configure the Dapr component using one of the authentication methods above.
+
+For more detailed setup instructions, refer to the [Akeyless documentation](https://docs.akeyless.io/).
