Application secrets

Each application comes with a primary and secondary application secret. You can use either secret key during the authorization process when your application requests an access token to call the SKY API. These values are sensitive, so don't share it with anyone else!

To display the secret, select Show.

To regenerate the secret, select Regenerate. Before you regenerate a secret, verify your application code is using the other application secret. Then, be sure to store the new secret securely.

To support security best practices, Blackbaud SKY Developer recommends you change your application secrets (OAuth client secret) on a regular schedule, such as every 90 days. For more information, see our credential rotation help.
