Delete a Secret Key

To delete a secret key in Datature Vi, open Settings, go to Secret Keys, click the action menu (⋯) next to the key, select Remove Key, and confirm. The key is revoked immediately.

Before You Start

Deleting a secret key is irreversible.
You need Owner or Admin role to delete secret keys.
If the key is in active use, update your applications with a replacement key before deleting (see Create a secret key).

Navigate to the Secret Keys tab

From your organization dashboard, click Settings at the bottom of the left sidebar and select the Members tab.

You should see

The Secret Keys table with the deleted key no longer listed

The key no longer appears in the table and can no longer authenticate requests.

When to delete a key

Delete a key in any of these situations:

The key was accidentally exposed or shared
The application or integration using the key has been decommissioned
A team member who created the key has left the organization
The key is part of a scheduled rotation cycle
A development or testing key is no longer needed

After deletion

Once deleted, the key is removed from the Secret Keys table. Any application or service that was using it will fail authentication on the next request.

If the deleted key was in active use, update your applications:

Create a new secret key with the same or updated permissions.
Update the key value in your environment variables or secrets manager.
Redeploy or restart any services that use the key.
