Secret Variable Configuration

Secret Variable

The Secret Variable is used to store a value that is not visible in OctoPerf. For instance if you want to share with your colleagues a secret token while not allowing them to see it.

Note

A click on the blue variable name in the Usage section will copy it to the clipboard.

When you open a secret variable the value is not loaded in your browser, but you can enter a new one from there.


For each Secret Variable, you can edit:

Property name Description
Name The variable name. To inject it, use the ${...} syntax.
Description The variable description text.
Value The Secret Variable value.

Warning

Although we will not display this variable anywhere in OctoPerf it is still possible to use a JSR script to log its value in a plain text log file during a test. For this reason you must be careful when sharing values with colleagues that are allowed to run tests from this project. Only read only or viewer users will be completely banned from accessing the value of a secret variable.
