I am just curious to know how to assign multiple credentials to the app. I do not have any usecase as of now but want to try if this is possible in the apigee and how this works in the edge.

@Dino-at-Google - I am coming from the comment https://community.apigee.com/questions/48444/is-the-xpath-within-an-extractvariables-policy-a-m.html?childToView=71423#comment-71423 so wanted to learn how to do it. that’s the reason for asking.

Yes.

In the UI, select the App.

In the upper right, click the Edit button.

Then add a credential.

this seems good reason for me -

if you're using API key rotation, you can generate new keys whose expiration overlaps keys that will be out of rotation when they expire. You might also generate a new key/secret if the security of the original key/secret is compromised. If you generate a new key, any existing API keys will continue to work until they expire or you explicitly revoke them.

It can be useful for migrating the the apps also.
