To store a vault password in a file, enter the password as a string on a single line in the file. Make sure the permissions on the file are appropriate. Do not add password files to source control.

When you run a playbook that uses a vault password stored in a file, specify the file within the ``--vault-password-file`` flag. For example:

.. code-block:: bash

ansible-playbook --extra-vars @secrets.enc --vault-password-file secrets.pass
