Hi guys,  
I followed the guide here:

> **[Secrets](https://rancher.com/docs/rancher/v2.x/en/k8s-in-rancher/secrets/)**

I created a secret, and added it to my workload.  
I even redeployed my workload after doing this, but for some reason, the secrets are not mounted in /run/secrets

Am I missing something? 🤔

That looks to be the section for using a secret as an environment variable value. To make it available as a file you add a volume and tell it where to be mounted.
