Create a Sensitive Environment Variable on a project with REST API

Question

Is there any way to add a sensitive env variable to a project using the api? I'm trying to generate keys in a way that they will never be read by a human.

You'd likely need to rebuild to load in the new env vars when it comes to a lot of statically generated content, would using the Vercel Edge Config work better since it's designed for runtime changes for the more programatic usage?

@BadWolfDev If you're talking about tokens that change somewhat frequently, then Edge Config is a more appropriate option for sure.

For longer lived values you should be able to use the API to create one or more environment variables.
