Manage OpenStack secrets¶
In F5 VNFM, click , click 
next to each of the
following secrets to edit the values for your project. Doing so enables your blueprint to access these values as needed,
during orchestration, without exposing the plain text values.
Important
To avoid deployment issues, verify that you enter these secrets correctly. For example, remove any extra spaces in the keystone secrets. Click 
to view the secret value (if you have the correct permissions).
