Secrets Management

Create and manage your Tenant secrets

Note that you'll only see this section if you have Admin or Owner user permissions. Learn more about permissions in this article.

Overview

There can be instances in Onum where you need to use sensitive values such as usernames, passwords, API keys, authorization tokens, etc. You can add these values here and use them whenever needed.

In the Secrets Management view, you can search for a secret or, if you have the required permissions, turn them on or off.

Create a New Secret

In the Secrets Management view, click New secret to define a new secret. You'll need to fill the following parameters:

Metadata

Parameter	Description
Name*	Give a name to your new secret.
Description	Optionally, enter a description for the secret.
Tags	Add tags to easily identify your secret. Hit the Enter key after you define each tag.

Configuration

Parameter	Description
Expiration date	You can set an expiration date for the new secret. Activate the toggle and choose the date in the calendar. Although you can disable expiration dates, it is recommended to set one for best security practices.
Secret active	Permission permitting, you can decide whether the secret can be activated/deactivated at any point.

Value

Parameter	Description
Add new value	Here is where you enter your secret value. This will be the password/access key/certificate, etc. itself. Click the button and simply type in the secret value to be stored.

When you have finished, click Save in the right-hand corner. The new secret will appear in the Secrets management table.

Delete a Secret

You can remove a secret at any time using the ellipse next to its name in the Secrets management table.

If your secret is being used anywhere (Pipeline, Data sink...) you won't be able to delete it.

In those cases, you'll be prompted with a warning indicating the items where it is being used. To delete the secret, it must not be used anywhere in your Tenant.
