Demand
Part of the Kapa "Secrets & Seeding" cluster — 15 conversations / 15 users.
Problem
- The docs do not distinguish
pod.getPassword() (available at server startup) from session.passwords[...] (used inside endpoints) — users ask things like "can I use pod.getPassword in Flutter?".
- No guidance on managing secrets on Serverpod Cloud (the managed environment), or where credential files like
google_client_secret.json / firebase_service_account_key.json should live.
- No production storage / gitignore guidance.
Scope
07-configuration.md: an explicit startup-vs-endpoint note.
- Deployment docs: a "Secrets on Serverpod Cloud" section.
- Production storage / gitignore guidance.
