# Managing secrets

You can use a secret vault to save your LLM provider tokens. The main advantage here is to avoid spreading those token and giving otoroshi apikeys to your own people instead.

You can just use a local vault API key using the following syntax `${vault://vault_name/token_name}`. Here is an example using the local otoroshi vault.
