What is "Secret" Keyword?

[Emeryund]

I found a keyword that is highlighted in blue syntax called "Secret". I have no idea what it does and I can’t find any information about it. Does anybody know what this does?

Thanks!

I think it is for storing API keys

It could be but I don’t see any properties that come along with it or how I could store an API key using this method

A Secret is best described as a string that only you know about, its not stored in your game’s code outside of an identifier. (probably something on create.roblox.com will let you create them very soon) Its used to store API keys for external HTTP requests.
