Projects

Managing your Projects

As mentioned before, projects house secrets which are further organized into environments such as development, testing and production. A project can be anything from a single application to a collection of micro-services that you wish to manage secrets for.

Secrets Overview

The Secrets Overview screen provides a bird’s-eye view of all the secrets in a project and is useful for comparing secrets and identifying missing ones across environments.
