    3. Configure the **Source** from where secrets should be retrieved, then click **Next**.
    ![Configure Source](/images/secret-syncs/heroku/heroku-source.png)

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

    <Tip>
        If you need to sync secrets from multiple folder locations, check out [secret imports](/documentation/platform/secret-reference#secret-imports).
    </Tip>

    4. Configure the **Destination** to where secrets should be deployed, then click **Next**.
    ![Configure Destination](/images/secret-syncs/heroku/heroku-destination.png)

        - **Heroku Connection**: The Heroku Connection to authenticate with.
        - **Heroku App**: The Heroku application to sync secrets to.

    5. Configure the **Sync Options** to specify how secrets should be synced, then click **Next**.
    ![Configure Options](/images/secret-syncs/heroku/heroku-options.png)

        - **Initial Sync Behavior**: Determines how Infisical should resolve the initial sync.
            - **Import - Prefer values from Infisical**: Import secrets from Heroku to Infisical; if a secret with the same name already exists in Infisical, do nothing. Afterwards, sync secrets to Heroku.
            - **Import - Prefer values from Heroku**: Import secrets from Heroku to Infisical; if a secret with the same name already exists in Infisical, replace its value with the one from Heroku. Afterwards, sync secrets to Heroku.
            - **Overwrite Destination Secrets**: Removes any secrets at the destination endpoint not present in Infisical.
        - **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.
        <Note>
            We highly recommend using a Key Schema to ensure that Infisical only manages the specific keys you intend, keeping everything else untouched.
        </Note>
        - **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 the **Details** of your Heroku Sync, then click **Next**.
    ![Configure Details](/images/secret-syncs/heroku/heroku-details.png)

        - **Name**: The name of your sync. Must be slug-friendly.
        - **Description**: An optional description for your sync.

    7. Review your Heroku Sync configuration, then click **Create Sync**.
