Hi folks.

How can I make the API keys on api connector dynamic? So when I plan to change API key, I can do it somewhere in my app dashboad instead of going through the backend?

Add the keys to the header in every call:

Thank you for your response.

But how do I implement something like this   
and then I have an input field inside my app where I can put there the keys?

Thanks

It’s an action, when you add the action to the worflow you’ll have the non private fields available to add dynamic or not dynamic content to them:

Thank you so much! It worked 🙂  
Is there no security issue with this?
