What this guide covers

  • Yanola separates browser account access, connected-service authorization, function secrets, webhook secrets, and Agent Project API keys.
  • Prerequisites: Use a password manager and a trusted server-side secret store.
  • Result: Secrets are stored only in designated controls, connections validate, and no credential appears in client code or AI prompts.
  • Limit: The current account UI does not expose SSO, MFA configuration, session management, member roles, or a general audit-history browser.

Before you begin

  1. Use a password manager and a trusted server-side secret store.

Complete the task

  1. Keep API keys and webhook signing secrets out of browser and mobile code.
  2. Use Integrations connect flows rather than placing provider tokens in workflow fields.
  3. Use Function Environment Secrets for function credentials.
  4. Grant only the external permissions required for intended actions.
  5. Reconnect expired/error connections and revoke unused ones.
  6. Rotate any credential exposed to logs, prompts, or source control.
