+AWS Secrets Manager Backend
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+To enable Secrets Manager, specify :py:class:`~airflow.providers.amazon.aws.secrets.secrets_manager.SecretsManagerBackend`
+as the ``backend`` in  ``[secrets]`` section of ``airflow.cfg``.
+
+Here is a sample configuration:
+
+.. code-block:: ini
+
+    [secrets]
+    backend = airflow.providers.amazon.aws.secrets.secrets_manager.SecretsManagerBackend
+    backend_kwargs = {"connections_prefix": "airflow/connections", "variables_prefix": "airflow/variables", "profile_name": "default"}
+
+To authenticate you can either supply a profile name to reference aws profile, e.g. defined in ``~/.aws/config``, set
+environment variables like ``AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID``, ``AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY`` or pass those to the client as follows:
+
+.. code-block:: ini
+
+    [secrets]
+    backend = airflow.providers.amazon.aws.secrets.secrets_manager.SecretsManagerBackend
+    backend_kwargs = {"connections_prefix":"airflow/connections","aws_access_key_id": "AKI4Z78ADFSAFOZ3R",
