  • The environment tabs (1) switch between environments. The Default environment is the base: other environments inherit its keys unless they define their own.

  • Folders (2) group keys, for example db. + Folder adds one.

  • Add Secret (3) adds a key. A value can refer to another key with ${KEY}; readers get the expanded value.

  • Import (4) pastes an existing .env, shell or JSON configuration. Bulk Edit changes many keys at once.

  • Access (5) decides which users, groups and machine identities can read or write the project.

  • Syncs (6) pushes an environment to a cloud secret store; see Secret syncs.

  • Every change creates a new version. The row menu shows the history and can roll back.
