Secrets are used to validate the calls that your API receives to ensure they are legitimate.
Create a Secret
Navigate to Developer Tools and select the Secrets menu
Click the plus sign button in the bottom right corner
Add the Label and Secret
Label: Give the secret a name so that you can select it when configuring secrets elsewhere in the platform.
Secret: For best practice, ensure your secrets are more than 8 characters and include lowercase, uppercase, numbers, and special characters.
Note: You will not be able to view the secret after it has been created.
Click Save
Now that the secret has been configured you can use it in 3 areas within the platform:
Edit a Secret
Navigate to Developer Tools and select the Secrets menu
If a secret is in use it will display a Forms tag and/or an Approval Webhook tag with a number highlighting how many forms or approval webhooks the secret is used in
To edit the secret, click the pencil icon
Update the Label or the Secret Value
Click Save
Delete a Secret
Note: You are unable to delete a secret that is currently in use so make sure to remove the secret from any forms or approval webhooks it is being used in first.
Navigate to Developer Tools and select the Secrets menu
Select the trashcan icon next to a secret
Select the Delete button on the pop-up that says Are you sure you want to delete this secret?
