Important Notes

• Security Practices: Avoid using sensitive information in the CAPTCHA configuration fields, as this data may be visible to other users.
• Storing API Secrets: For improved security, manage API secrets under the Setup > Company > Preferences > API Secrets path in the UI. This prevents the use of plaintext secrets in scripts.
