Not a secret on its own, but it names the account.
Open the pagehttps://dashboard.nexmo.com/settings
API secret
Paste the API secret- On the same Settings page, find the API secret under API settings.
- A secret is shown only when created: if you no longer have it, create a new secret and copy it.
Sent alongside the key. Reading the balance is free.
Open the pagehttps://dashboard.nexmo.com/settings
2Add it to CreditBar
- Open CreditBar from the menu bar and choose Settings, then Accounts.
- Click Add account and pick Vonage.
- Paste the API key and the API secret into the matching fields, and give the account a label you will recognise.

Keys are stored in your Mac's Keychain and only ever sent to Vonage. Nothing passes through a CreditBar server.
