Use the Secrets tab. You can find this in the Tools section of the file tree.

and how to i run this in my code? like how do i use my ‘token’ yes i know its explained but i don’t understand
Once you made the secrets you would refer to it by putting (if you are using Javascript):
process.env.<secret name>
And Python:
os.getenv("<secret name>")In the Tools section, hit “Secrets”
Then, set the name of your token.
This does the equivalent of creating an env file with BOT_TOKEN=...
Is there a difference between using os.getenv() and os.environ[]?

2 different ways to get it I guess. That’s how you get it in Python and I never really used secrets in Python.
