secret() value keeps on changing on UI reload.
I have a nodejs project that connects to a postgres container.
I use
${{secret()}}to randomly generate a postgres user password. Which works fine for postgres.
Lets say app fails and I refresh the UI and click redeploy my nodejs app. The UI reload re-generates a new secret value but the postgres was deployed with old secret. So I get invalid password related errors in my app.Solution:Jump to solution
${{secret ()}} can not be used after you have deployed a service, they are only to be set in templates, not on already deployed services3 Replies
