# Find leaked Stripe keys across public GitHub repos

**Use case:** 

Search all of public GitHub for repos that mention Stripe and scan them for live and test secret keys, with each finding's repo, file, line and commit. Without a GitHub token a run covers up to 20 repos; add one to go wider and use Code Search.

## About this Actor

This example demonstrates how to use [Gitleaks Cloud - GitHub API Key Hunter & Secret Scanner](https://apify.com/anshumanatrey/gitleaks-github-secret-scanner.md) with a specific input configuration.

## How to integrate an Actor?

This Task's input is already configured above. Use it as-is rather than inventing a new one.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For full API examples (JavaScript, Python, CLI, MCP, OpenAPI), see this Task's Actor page: https://apify.com/anshumanatrey/gitleaks-github-secret-scanner.md

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).
