# attest # `actions/attest`
GitHub Action to sign and upload [in-toto Attestation Predicates][0] for Generate signed attestations for workflow artifacts. Internally powered by the
artifacts as part of a workflow. [@actions/attest][1] package.
Attestations bind some subject (a named artifact along with its digest) to a
predicate (some assertion about that subject) using the [in-toto][2] format.
[Predicates][3] consist of a type URI and a JSON object containing
type-dependent parameters.
A verifiable signature is generated for the attestation using a short-lived
[Sigstore][4]-issued signing certificate. If the repository initiating the
GitHub Actions workflow is public, the public-good instance of Sigstore will be
used to generate the attestation signature. If the repository is
private/internal, it will use the GitHub private Sigstore instance.
Once the attestation has been created and signed, it will be uploaded to the GH
attestations API and associated with the repository from which the workflow was
initiated.
Attestations can be verified using the `attestation` command in the [GitHub
CLI][5].
## Usage ## Usage

[vetted predicate types][3] or a custom value. The `predicate-path`
### What is being attested? identifies a file containg the JSON-encoded predicate parameters.
The generated attestation is based on the inputs of `predicate-path` and `predicate-type`
```json
{
"_type": "https://in-toto.io/Statement/v1",
"subject": [
{
"name": "subject",
"digest": {
"sha256": "7d070f6b64d9bcc530fe99cc21eaaa4b3c364e0b2d367d7735671fa202a03b32"
}
}
],
"predicateType": $predicateType,
"predicate": {
...
}
}
```
The predicate statement is signed with a short-lived, [Sigstore][1]-issued
certificate.
If the repository initiating the GitHub Actions workflow is public, the public
instance of Sigstore will be used to generate the attestation signature. If the
repository is private, it will use the GitHub private Sigstore instance.
### Where does the attestation go?
On the actions summary page for a repository you'll see an "Attestations" link
which will take you to a list of all the attestations generated by workflows in
that repository.
![Actions summary view](./.github/attestations.png)
### How are attestations verified?
Attestations can be verified using the [gh-attestation][2] extension for the
[GitHub CLI][3].
## Customization
See [action.yml](action.yml)
### Inputs ### Inputs
- `predicate` - String containing the value for the attestation predicate. See [action.yml](action.yml)
Must supply exactly one of "predicate-path" or "predicate". ```yaml
- uses: actions/attest@v1
with:
# Path to the artifact serving as the subject of the attestation. Must
# specify exactly one of "subject-path" or "subject-digest".
subject-path:
- `predicate-path` - Path to the file which contains the content for the # SHA256 digest of the subject for for the attestation. Must be in the form
attestation predicate. # "sha256:hex_digest" (e.g. "sha256:abc123..."). Must specify exactly one
# of "subject-path" or "subject-digest".
subject-digest:
Must supply exactly one of "predicate-path" or "predicate". # Subject name as it should appear in the attestation. Required unless
# "subject-path" is specified, in which case it will be inferred from the
# path.
subject-name:
- `predicate-type` - URI identifying the type of the predicate. # URI identifying the type of the predicate.
predicate-type:
- `subject-path` - Path to the artifact for which the predicate statement will be # JSON string containing the value for the attestation predicate. Must
generated. # supply exactly one of "predicate-path" or "predicate".
predicate:
Must specify exactly one of `subject-path` or `subject-digest`. Wildcards can # Path to the file which contains the JSON content for the attestation
be used to identify more than one artifact. # predicate. Must supply exactly one of "predicate-path" or "predicate".
predicate-path:
- `subject-digest` - Digest of the subject for which the predicate statement # Whether to push the attestation to the image registry. Requires that the
will be generated. # "subject-name" parameter specify the fully-qualified image name and that
# the "subject-digest" parameter be specified. Defaults to false.
push-to-registry:
Only SHA-256 digests are accepted and the supplied value must be in the form # The GitHub token used to make authenticated API requests. Default is
"sha256:\<hex-encoded-digest\>". Must specify exactly one of `subject-path` or # ${{ github.token }}
`subject-digest`. github-token:
```
- `subject-name` - Subject name as it should appear in the predicate statement.
Required when the subject is identified by the `subject-digest` parameter.
When attesting container images, the name should be the fully qualified image
name.
- `push-to-registry` - If true, the signed attestation is pushed to the
container registry identified by the `subject-name`. Default: `false`.
- `github-token` - Token used to make authenticated requests to the GitHub API.
Default: `${{ github.token }}`.
The supplied token must have the permissions necessary to write attestations
to the repository.

be written to the output file on a separate line (using the [JSON Lines][7]
format).
