Updating Existing Secrets

If you need to change one of your secrets you can (and should) simply update it so that you can continue to use your existing Fuzzfiles without updating them.

Please select either the web UI or CLI tab to see the appropriate instructions for your environment.

web UI

You can update a secret by first navigating to the secrets page and clicking on the ellipsis of a secret and clicking the edit button. A menu should pop up enabling you to edit the secret’s fields. In the example below, we will be editing secret my-user-s3-secret.

Edit secret

Fields of the secret can be updated in the edit dialog. In the example below, we are updating the S3 access key and access key ID of the secret. When you are done editing the values, you can save your changes by clicking save in the bottom right corner of the menu.

Updated secret fields

After saving your updated secret, the UPDATED column of the secret you just edited should show now. The image below shows that secret my-user-s3-secret has been updated one second ago after saving the changes.
