You may get it wrong, Github actions only use the machine you specify in *.yaml with build and deploy testing, what you actually embedded into a Docker image specify in your Dockerfile. So those secrets pass into the Github Action's machine not on Render.

If you hide your key in .env, just go to your instance on Render, go to Environment Tab > Import From .env.
