Probably not a good idea to show your API key to everyone..
What do you mean? I just see asterisks.
Same here. I’m pasting my password here and it will encrypt it so no one can see it other than me: *******

Oh cool it works for my password, too.
How do you know it's your password if all you see is astrisks?

Or at least use an environment variable, it's not a good practice to have it written in plaintext in your code.
