Secrets and keys
Last reviewed:
Payments or email may require a secret value from your service account. Use Secrets or the requested secret field; do not paste it into a regular chat message.
Add or update a secret
- 1
Open Secrets
In the project, click +, then Secrets. Wait for the list of saved names to load.
- 2
Enter the name and value
Use the variable name requested by the service or Codey, then paste the value into its masked field. Click Add secret. To update one, open its editor, enter the replacement, and Save changes.
- 3
Wait for saving
Wait for confirmation before continuing. If the name is rejected, follow the format shown below the field. If the secrets service is unavailable, contact support.
- 4
Test the service
Return to the task or preview and test the feature. If the service rejects the key, check its validity in your service account and update it in the secret field.
When Codey requests a value during work
- 1
Use the secure card
Enter the value in the dedicated card’s secret field and save. Wait for Saved securely before continuing the task.
- 2
Correct the value in its field
Use Replace if a new value is needed. Do not send it in ordinary chat to explain an error.
Delete an unused secret
- 1
Check whether it is still needed
Check that the website no longer needs the value, then click its delete button in Secrets.
- 2
Check the deletion result
Deletion starts as soon as you click; wait for the list to update. If the entry remains, reload and check that you are the owner. Removing a value still in use can break the related feature.
Values are encrypted in storage and masked by default. The project owner can click Reveal to read a saved value, then Hide. Revealing or deleting values requires the owner role.
