Features (1)
  • Manage Datadog and Snowflake secrets with automated rotation

    AWS Secrets Manager now supports managed external secrets for Datadog API keys, Application keys, admin credential pairs, and Snowflake Programmatic Access Tokens. This allows for automatic rotation of these third-party credentials directly from Secrets Manager.
