# Secrets
To run `act` with secrets, you can enter them interactively or supply them as environment variables.
If you have a secret called `FOO` in your `main.workflow`, `act` will take whatever you have set as `FOO` in the session from which you are running `act`.
If `FOO` is unset, it will ask you interactively.
You can set environment variables for the current session by running `export FOO="zap"`, or globally in your `.profile`.
You can also set environment variables *per directory* using a tool such as [direnv](https://direnv.net/).
**Be careful not to expose secrets**:
You may want to `.gitignore` any files or folders containing secrets, and/or encrypt secrets.
