Practise the standard verbs for rotating API keys without breaking consumers.
0 / 5 completed
1 / 5
Fill in: 'We ___ an API key on a ninety-day cycle, rather than a credential nobody's actually rotated in years.'
We 'rotate a key' — the standard, simple collocation for periodically replacing an API credential. The other options are less idiomatic here.
2 / 5
Fill in: 'Rotating a key without updating every consumer can ___ a downstream service failing on a credential nobody's actually refreshed.'
We say an incomplete rotation will 'leave' a service failing — the standard, natural collocation for the resulting outage. The other options aren't idiomatic here.
3 / 5
Fill in: 'We ___ a grace period overlapping old and new keys, rather than a cutover nobody's actually coordinated across services.'
We 'set a grace period' — the standard, simple collocation for overlapping key validity during rotation. The other options are less idiomatic here.
4 / 5
Fill in: 'We ___ every consumer against the new key before revoking the old one, rather than a service nobody's actually confirmed migrated.'
We 'verify a consumer' — the standard, simple collocation for confirming every dependent service has switched keys. The other options are less idiomatic here.
5 / 5
Fill in: 'We ___ key age across every service in the secrets dashboard, rather than a credential nobody's actually flagged as overdue.'
We 'track age' — the standard, simple collocation for monitoring how old API keys are across services. The other options aren't idiomatic here.
