Answer

In FluidGrids[1], third-party API keys and OAuth tokens are centralized in workspace connections, completely decoupled from workflow definitions:

  • Where keys are stored: When an admin configures a service connection in the workspace integrations area, secrets are encrypted at rest using AES-256-GCM (see FluidGrids Security[2]). Workflow canvas configurations and saved definitions store only connection references—raw secret material is never written to workflow files, logs, or node properties, and is decrypted only in worker memory at execution time.
  • Rotating without workflow edits: Because every workflow node points to a shared connection reference rather than a hardcoded token, rotation happens in a single location. As detailed in the Credential Rotation Use Case[3], updating or replacing the API key on the workspace connection instantly applies to every workflow referencing that provider on its next run—with zero edits needed across your canvases.

If you are instead looking to manage or rotate programmatic access keys for FluidGrids itself (such as for CI/CD pipelines or AI agents), those are configured with scoped permissions in the developer portal, covered under Developer API and MCP Agent Access[4].
