Hide API Tokens in the web interface #1564

Open zekroTJA opened 3 years ago

zekroTJA commented 3 years ago

It would be really nice when the API token on the project pages would be hidden by default and revealed by a button or link click. Also, a Copy to Clipboard button would be a really nice alternative to this.

As an example, Discord does a really good job at this.

I think authentication credentials should never be visible in a UI by default. A lot of developers are creating web video content or development live streams, just to name one example. Also it would be critical in web video conferences when credentials are visible by default.


All tokens shown have been invalidated.

@zekroTJA this is a great suggestion. I have added a change request to our backlog. Thanks for the UX example and background use cases.
