Laravel Forge Sync

Learn how to configure a Laravel Forge Sync for Infisical.

Prerequisites:

• Create a Laravel Forge Connection

Infisical UI

1. Add Sync

   Navigate to Project > Integrations and select the Secret Syncs tab. Click on the Add Sync button.

   
2. Select 'Laravel Forge'

   
3. Configure source

   Configure the Source from where secrets should be retrieved, then click Next.

   

   • Environment: The project environment to retrieve secrets from.
   • Secret Path: The folder path to retrieve secrets from.

   If you need to sync secrets from multiple folder locations, check out secret imports.

4. Configure destination

   Configure the Destination to where secrets should be deployed, then click Next.

   

   • Laravel Forge Connection: The Laravel Forge Connection to authenticate with.
   • Organization: The Organization in which the server and site reside.
   • Server: The Server on which the site resides.
   • Site: The Site for which secrets should be synced.
5. Configure Sync Options

   Configure the Sync Options to specify how secrets should be synced, then click Next.

   

   • Initial Sync Behavior: Determines how Infisical should resolve the initial sync.
     • Overwrite Destination Secrets: Removes any secrets at the destination endpoint not present in Infisical.
     • Import Secrets (Prioritize Infisical): Imports secrets from the destination endpoint before syncing, prioritizing values from Infisical over Laravel Forge when keys conflict.
     • Import Secrets (Prioritize Laravel Forge): Imports secrets from the destination endpoint before syncing, prioritizing values from Laravel Forge over Infisical when keys conflict.
   • Key Schema: Template that determines how secret names are transformed when syncing, using {{secretKey}} as a placeholder for the original secret name and {{environment}} for the environment.

   We highly recommend using a Key Schema to ensure that Infisical only manages the specific keys you intend, keeping everything else untouched.

   • Auto-Sync Enabled: If enabled, secrets will automatically be synced from the source location when changes occur. Disable to enforce manual syncing only.
   • Disable Secret Deletion: If enabled, Infisical will not remove secrets from the sync destination. Enable this option if you intend to manage some secrets manually outside of Infisical.
6. Configure details

   Configure the Details of your Laravel Forge Sync, then click Next.

   

   • Name: The name of your sync. Must be slug-friendly.
   • Description: An optional description for your sync.
7. Review configuration

   Review your Laravel Forge Sync configuration, then click Create Sync.

   
8. Sync created

   If enabled, your Laravel Forge Sync will begin syncing your secrets to the destination endpoint.
