API to rotate client secrets for an M2M app
We are migrating from Auth0 and require an API to rotate client secrets for an M2M app, I've looked over your management API docs and can't see anything?

Hello, David. You are right, currently, client secret rotation for M2M applications can only be done through the Kinde dashboard - there is no API endpoint available for this functionality.
Here's how you can rotate the client secret manually:
1. Go to Settings > Applications in Kinde
2. Select "View details" on your M2M application
3. Scroll to the "Admin actions" section
4. If you have a previous client secret, you'll need to delete it first
5. Select "Rotate" and follow the prompts I’ve followed up with my team to confirm whether there are any new updates I need to be aware of. If you have any additional questions or concerns that I can help with, please let me know. Sources: [1] Rotate client secret

Rotate client secret
Our developer tools provide everything you need to get started with Kinde.
Thanks, this would be a useful feature to have. We are required to create dedicated M2M apps for some clients and they can then rotate secrets themself when they need to and do not need to raise a support request. I will probably just delete the app and recreate it as a workaround.
Hello, David. I have informed the team about your suggestions. Features normally take some time to develop, test and publish, but they are considered. I will let you know if there is any update you should know of. Thank you!
