Edgefunction Secret key

I’m encountering a problem in Settings > Secrets where different environment variables for PayPal Sandbox and Live end up showing the same value, even though I entered different ones.

Steps to reproduce:

In Settings > Secrets, enter a unique value for PAYPAL_LIVE_CLIENT_ID and PAYPAL_LIVE_CLIENT_SECRET.

Save the changes.

Enter a different value for PAYPAL_SANDBOX_CLIENT_ID and PAYPAL_SANDBOX_CLIENT_SECRET.

Save again.

Observed result:

After saving, both the Live and Sandbox variables display the same values.

This happens even if I make sure the Sandbox values and Live values are completely different.

Impact:

I cannot store separate credentials for Sandbox and Live environments.

This is blocking my ability to test and switch between environments.

Please advise if this is a known bug, and if there’s a workaround so I can store different credentials for each environment without overwriting.

How did you come to this conclusion that the values are same? Are you logging the values inside your function?

I can see the value at secret

inder•8/15/25, 8:04 AM

You mean these? These are not the actual secrets. These are hashes calculated from the secret value

hyperjasonOP•8/15/25, 9:02 AM

Yes!!!

hyperjasonOP•8/15/25, 9:02 AM

But it is same

hyperjasonOP•8/15/25, 9:03 AM

It can be same right?

inder•8/15/25, 9:07 AM

hover over the value, you'll see the full hash. Compare the full hashes. Even if there is one character difference in the secret value, the hashes will be different

Ok. I will check thanks

hyperjasonOP•8/15/25, 9:18 AM

It is same

hyperjasonOP•8/15/25, 9:18 AM

I just checked

hyperjasonOP•8/15/25, 9:19 AM

Something wrong with paypal?

inder•8/15/25, 9:19 AM

If the hashes are same, then check the actual secret values you add here

hyperjasonOP•8/15/25, 9:25 AM

It is different for sure. One is sandbox value and the other is live.

I'd recommend to not check the equality manually, you can simply paste the values in a browser console and check equality

This is a sha256 hash. It's one of the most robust hashing solutions. And it will only generate the same hash value if the original value is same

Can I talk to you direct mesaage?

hyperjasonOP•8/15/25, 9:30 AM

I want to ask you about paypal

inder•8/15/25, 9:31 AM

Sorry. You can post your queries here, someone else who knows about paypal might answer
