To navigate to this page, follow these steps:

A link that says "Settings"

  1. Click on Secrets in the left sidebar.

Step 2: Edit the secret you need

  1. Find the secret name in the table. For example: PAGERDUTY_TOKEN.

A table row with the name PAGERDUTY_TOKEN, an edit icon as a button and a short description of what the token does

2.. Click the pencil icon to open a dialog where you can set a token.
