Shape of a secret
- Name - the environment variable name, for example
OPENAI_API_KEY. - Value - stored encrypted when set. Placeholders have a name only until you fill them. The server never keeps a readable value.
- Status -
active,placeholder, or stopped (revoked). Placeholders are not injectable. Stop providing in the dashboard; add or import again to provide the secret once more. - Expiration - optional deadline after which getmyenv stops providing the secret.
No versioning
getmyenv does not keep old values. When a secret changes, the previous ciphertext is replaced. To keep a portable copy, use Export on Secrets, or the CLI backup / export commands.
