warning Save the Client Secret

The Client Secret and API key are shown only once at creation. If you lose them, create a new key.

quiz FAQ

No. The web custom connector works entirely in the browser via OAuth — no Node.js or config file.

They are shown once when you create an API key in the dashboard (there is a "Download JSON" button).
