Organization secrets

You can now create organization secrets, reducing the need to duplicate secrets across repositories.

  • Access policies let you control which repositories have access to the organization secret
  • Updating a secret in one location ensures that the change takes effect in all repositories that use the secret
  • You can view when an organization or repository secret was last updated, making it easier to rotate secrets regularly

The Actions API has been updated to include new organization secrets endpoints.
