Applications
Create and manage applications in SecretStash to organize your environment variables by project.
Applications represent individual projects or services within your organization. Each application contains one or more environments, and each environment holds its own set of encrypted variables.
Viewing an Application
Click View on any application card from the Dashboard to open the application detail page. The detail page displays:
- Application name and status badge (Active or Archived).
- Application ID — a unique identifier used by the CLI. Click the copy icon to copy it to your clipboard.
- Environments — a vertical tab list of all environments within the application.
Creating an Application
Open the create dialog
From the Dashboard or Applications list, click the New application button.
Enter a name
Provide a descriptive name for your application (e.g., "Marketing Site", "API Service").
Submit
Click Create to add the application. It will appear in your application list with an "Active" status.
Application creation is subject to your subscription plan limits. If you have reached your limit, you will be prompted to upgrade your plan.
Deleting an Application
Deleting an application is permanent and cannot be undone. All environments and variables within the application will be permanently removed.
Open the delete dialog
Click the Delete button on the application card from the Dashboard.
Confirm deletion
Type the application name exactly as shown to confirm, then click Delete.
Application ID
Each application has a unique ID displayed on the application detail page. This ID is required for CLI configuration:
Use the copy icon next to the Application ID to quickly copy it to your clipboard.
