Secrets management for synthetic monitoring
Secrets management for synthetic monitoring
We’re excited to announce the public preview release of secrets management for Synthetic Monitoring, available to all Grafana Cloud users.
Secrets management gives you a centralized place to securely store sensitive data like API keys, passwords, and tokens.
You can reference secrets by name in your scripted and browser Synthetics checks so that sensitive values are never visible or stored as cleartext. Secret values are also automatically masked in all Synthetic Monitoring output to prevent accidental exposure.
Access to create, update, and delete secrets is currently restricted to admin users. However, anyone with permissions to edit checks can use secrets provided they know the secret name.
Currently secrets can only be accessed in scripted and browser checks, but support for more check types will be available in the future.
To learn more, refer to the secrets management documentation.
