Secret key

Azimuth requires a secret key that is used primarily for signing cookies:

environments/my-site/inventory/group_vars/all/secrets.yml
azimuth_secret_key: "<some secret key>"

Tip

This key should be a long, random string - at least 32 bytes (256 bits) is recommended.

azimuth-config includes a utility for generating secrets for an environment:

./bin/generate-secrets [--force] <environment-name>

Danger

This key should be kept secret. If you want to keep it in Git - which is recommended - then it must be encrypted.
