SECRET ENV [secret name...]
The SECRET ENV
instruction adds values from secrets to the runner’s
environment.
Secrets are useful for storing sensitive information. They can hold passwords, API keys, or other private credentials. For security reasons, it is good practice to not keep this information within source code. Managing private data using secrets allows easy authentication with other services on your behalf.

Step 1: Navigate to the secrets tab in your webapp.io account.
