{% capture overview %}
This page shows how to use a [`projected`](/docs/concepts/storage/volumes/#projected) volume to mount several existing volume sources into the same directory. Currently, `secret`, `configMap`, and `downwardAPI` volumes can be projected.

## Configure a projected volume for a pod
In this exercise, you create username and password Secrets from local files. You then create a Pod that runs one Container, using a [`projected`](/docs/concepts/storage/volumes/#projected) Volume to mount the Secrets into the same shared directory.
Here is the configuration file for the Pod:
{% include code.html language="yaml" file="projected-volume.yaml" ghlink="/docs/tasks/configure-pod-container/projected-volume.yaml" %}
1. Create the Secrets:
# Create files containing the username and password:
echo -n "admin" > ./username.txt
echo -n "1f2d1e2e67df" > ./password.txt
# Package these files into secrets:
kubectl create secret generic user --from-file=./username.txt
kubectl create secret generic pass --from-file=./password.txt
1. Create the Pod:
kubectl create -f projected-volume.yaml
1. Verify that the Pod's Container is running, and then watch for changes to
the Pod:
kubectl get --watch pod test-projected-volume
The output looks like this:
NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE
test-projected-volume 1/1 Running 0 14s
1. In another terminal, get a shell to the running Container:
kubectl exec -it test-projected-volume -- /bin/sh
1. In your shell, verify that the `projected-volumes` directory contains your projected sources:
/ # ls projected-volumes/

The _projected volume_ is a volume that projects several existing volume sources
into the same directory. Currently, one can project configmaps, downward API,
and secrets. The resulting pod spec is also shorter when projecting to a single
volume as opposed to multiple different locations. See [all-in-one volume design document](https://github.com/kubernetes/community/blob/{{page.githubbranch}}/contributors/design-proposals/all-in-one-volume.md)
for more information.

## Overview of a projected volume
The projected volume encapsulates multiple volumes to be projected, with each
volume source respecting nearly the same parameters as supported by each
individual type. Consider the following example:
```yaml
apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod
metadata:
name: volume-test
spec:
containers:
- name: container-test
image: busybox
volumeMounts:
- name: all-in-one
mountPath: "/projected-volume"
readOnly: true
volumes:
- name: all-in-one
projected:
sources:
- secret:
name: mysecret
items:
- key: username
path: my-group/my-username
- secret:
name: mysecret2
items:
- key: password
path: my-group/my-password
mode: 511
```
Each volume source is listed in the spec under `sources`. As stated above the
parameters are nearly the same with two exceptions:
* For secrets, the `secretName` field has been changed to `name` to be consistent
with config maps naming.
* The `defaultMode` can only be specified at the projected level and not for each
volume source. However, as illustrated above, you can explicitly set the `mode`
for each individual projection.
## Creating projections
A projected volume is created by passing in the pod spec to kubectl as normally
done to create a new pod:
```shell
kubectl create -f podspec.yaml
```
## Restrictions
Both secrets and config maps are required to be in the same namespace as the
pod.
