Set Up Secrets For Github Action

# Step 6: Set Up Secrets For Github Action

• Goto your forked repo > settings > secrets > action

Now here under secrets, you need to create four secrets

• HEROKU_EMAIL
• HEROKU_API_KEY
• HEROKU_APP_NAME
• CONFIG_FILE_URL

Do the same for other three secrets.

HEROKU_API_KEY

• Goto your heroku account settings Here
• Scroll down and copy the api key

HEROKU_APP_NAME:

• Name you would like to give to your heroku app (must be unique)

CONFIG_FILE_URL:

• Goto that gist you created for the config.env
• Then click on raw

• And copy the url then remove the commit id
• For eg https://gist.githubusercontent.com/ghostmirrorlab/f9b1e6xxxxxxxxxxxxxaaac04520/raw/200d4a93e0eb5ee8d4b0e5a377ce0396a131843e/config.env then the commit id will the one after raw/ and before /config.env

original config.env url:

https://gist.githubusercontent.com/ghostmirrorlab/f9b1e6xxxxxxxxxxxxxaaac04520/raw/200d4a93e0eb5ee8d4b0e5a377ce0396a131843e/config.env

url after removing commit id:

https://gist.githubusercontent.com/ghostmirrorlab/f9b1e6xxxxxxxxxxxxxaaac04520/raw/config.env

• After removing the commit id use that url for the CONFIG_FILE_URL
• Once all the four secrets have been added, it should look like this

• And we are done with the action secrets.
