How to Safely Rotate API Credentials Without Interrupting an Integration

Replacing a credential too early can break clients that still use the old value; leaving both active indefinitely expands exposure.

Checks to make

Identify every consumer, issue a scoped replacement, deploy and verify use of the new credential, monitor authentication failures, then revoke the old one on a defined schedule. Never include secret values in logs or tickets.

When to get help
