Definition
A secret value is encrypted test data that Rima masks in the interface, logs, and run evidence.
What it is for
Use secrets for credentials or tokens that a test needs but people reviewing results should not see.
How it works
- Mark a project variable or an editable step value as secret; Rima encrypts it and shows a masked placeholder everywhere.
- Runs use the real value, but the interface, logs, and stored evidence stay masked.
- Secret values are not sent back to the browser; leaving the value blank while editing keeps the existing secret.
Example
Save a password as a secret project variable and select it in the login password step; run output shows a masked value.
Common use cases
- Passwords.
- API tokens.
- Private customer identifiers.
- Sensitive form data.
Where to find it
Mark a project variable or editable step value as secret in the project test editor.
Limitations, requirements, and permissions
- Once saved as secret, the value cannot be read back from the interface; re-enter it to change it.
- Anyone with test-edit permission can point steps at a secret, so scope project access accordingly.
