How to find what is the name of assigned to V1ObjectMeta in kubernetes?

I have the following code using the k8s python client:

config.load_incluster_config()
v1 = client.CoreV1Api()
object_meta = k8s.V1ObjectMeta(generate_name='myprefix',
                               namespace='my_name_space')
body = k8s.V1Secret(string_data=data, kind='Secret', type='my_type', metadata=object_meta)
api_response = v1.create_namespaced_secret(namespace='my_name_space', body=body)

This creates a secret in my K8s namespace. Since I'm using generate_name it assigned to it some random value with the prefix I gave so the name can be myprefix-fbdsu3 or anything like it.

My question is how do I get the name assigned to that secret after it was created?

You can pass the secret name into this code and get the example of the secret

from kubernetes import client, config
config.load_kube_config()
v1 = client.CoreV1Api()
secret = v1.read_namespaced_secret("Secret-name", "Namespace-Name")
print(secret)

decode the secret and get the detail s

from kubernetes import client, config
import base64
import sys    
config.load_kube_config()
v1 = client.CoreV1Api()
sec = str(v1.read_namespaced_secret("secret-name", "namespace-name").data)
pas = base64.b64decode(sec.strip().split()[1].translate(None, '}\''))
print(pas)
