Prerequisites:
- Set up and add secrets to [Infisical Cloud](https://app.infisical.com)
- Create a [Rundeck Connection](/integrations/app-connections/rundeck)
2. Configure the **Source** to specify where secrets should be retrieved from, then click **Continue**.

- **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>
3. Configure the **Destination** to specify where secrets should be deployed, then click **Continue**.

- **Rundeck Connection**: The Rundeck Connection to authenticate with.
- **Project**: The Rundeck project to sync secrets to.
- **Path**: The Key Storage path within the project. Must start with `/` (e.g. `/production`).
<Note>
Secrets are stored in Rundeck Key Storage under `keys/project/<project><path>`. For example,
a secret named `API_KEY` synced to project `web-app` with path `/production` is stored at
`keys/project/web-app/production/API_KEY`.
</Note>
4. Configure the **Initial Sync Behavior** to determine how Infisical should resolve the first sync, then click **Continue**.

- **Overwrite Destination Secrets**: On the initial sync, Infisical writes its secrets to Rundeck. No secrets are imported from Rundeck, and depending on your configuration this can remove secrets from Rundeck.
<Note>
Rundeck Syncs do not support importing secrets from the destination — only overwrite is available.
</Note>
5. Configure the **Sync Options** to control how secrets are written, then click **Continue**.

- **Disable Secret Deletion**: If enabled, Infisical will not remove secrets from Rundeck during a sync. Enable this if you intend to manage some secrets manually outside of Infisical.
- **Auto-Sync on Changes**: If enabled, secrets are automatically synced to Rundeck whenever they change in the source. Turn off to sync manually only.
- **Customize Key Names**: Add a prefix or suffix so Infisical can identify which keys in Rundeck it manages — anything else is left untouched.
6. Configure the **Details** of your Rundeck Sync, then click **Continue**.

- **Name**: The name of your sync. Must be slug-friendly.
- **Description**: An optional description for your sync.
7. Review your Rundeck Sync configuration, then click **Create Sync**.

8. Your Rundeck Sync is created and will begin syncing your secrets to the destination.
