Best Practices for Managing Manage Keys

  • Keep Your Manage Keys Secret: Treat your Manage Keys like passwords. Do not share them publicly or expose them in client-side code.
  • Rotate Your Manage Keys Regularly: Periodically regenerate your Manage Keys to minimize the risk of unauthorized access.
  • Use Environment Variables: Store your Manage Keys in environment variables instead of hardcoding them in your application.
