Quick Start

Get started with Infisical in 15 minutes:

# 1. Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/Infisical/infisical-guides.git
cd infisical-guides

# 2. Start with project bootstrap
cd terraform-examples/project-bootstrap
cp terraform.tfvars.example terraform.tfvars
# Edit terraform.tfvars with your credentials
terraform init && terraform apply

# 3. Add static secrets
cd ../static-secrets
# Follow the README for configuration

Terraform Examples

Production-ready Terraform boilerplate for common Infisical use cases:

Example	Description	Complexity
project-bootstrap	Complete project setup with environments and folders	Simple
static-secrets	Traditional secret management (API keys, passwords)	Simple
dynamic-secrets	Temporary database credentials	Advanced
secret-rotation	Automated credential lifecycle	Enterprise
secret-syncing	Sync to AWS, GitHub, and other services	Medium

Kubernetes Examples

Hands-on demos showing Infisical integrations in Kubernetes environments:

Example	Description
ESO-With-Infisical	Sync secrets from Infisical into Kubernetes using External Secrets Operator with Kubernetes Auth

For Most Teams

1. Start with project-bootstrap to set up your Infisical project
2. Use static-secrets for managing API keys and passwords
3. Add secret-syncing when you need to distribute secrets to external services
4. Consider advanced features (dynamic secrets, rotation) only for specific enterprise requirements

Prerequisites

• Terraform >= 1.10.0 (required for ephemeral resources)
• Infisical account with machine identity
• Target services configured (for advanced features)

Resources

• Infisical Documentation
• Terraform Provider Docs
• Infisical Community
