APIv3 Secret Key

[MobilityLab]

Hi,

This may sound like a silly question -- in my dev portal, under "my applications" I have a test application and a live working app. If I generate a secret key within my test app does this reset the secret key in my other app? I do not want to break my live app. Again sorry I am asking this simple but I could not find anything in the documentation regarding this. Thanks in advance!

Hello Tom, 

My name is Caleb and I'm a member of Constant Contact’s API Developer Support.

Each V3 Key on the My Applications key has its own Secret, and resetting the Secret for one key will not affect the secret of your other keys as they are key-specific.

The Client Secret does not expire and should not need to be updated or replaced unless either a new secret is generated (invalidating the old one), or if the secret is lost/misplaced, as it is only visible upon initial generation and cannot be recovered. You would at that point need to generate a new one.

Thanks Caleb -- I thought so, however I wanted to be 100% sure. Thanks for clarifying that for me! Much appreciated and take care.
