05/10/2019, 6:48 PMWhat is the difference between Prisma Token and Prisma Secret? If I'm understanding this correctly, Prisma Secret is when, let's say in a development environment, Node communicates with prisma.yml on the Prisma server, the two (Prisma Secret from prisma.js in Node and Prisma Secret in prisma.yml on Prisma server) check against each other to make sure they match. In that sense, Prisma Secret is something I can arbitrarily create with any series of characters, where as Token is something Prisma generates. What is Prisma Token and when is it used?

05/10/2019, 10:22 PM@Venky I'm not sure if that's correct because I have configuration for both Prisma secret and JWT secret separately

You might have a separate JWT for your own authentication system, but jwt used by Prisma is completely different thing.

05/12/2019, 1:49 PM@Harshit I see. I keep getting "A valid environment variable to satisfy the declaration
! 'env:PRISMA_SECRET' could not be found." even though I have the PRISMA_SECRET configured in dev.env.

"dev": "env-cmd ./config/dev.env nodemon src/index.js --ext js,graphql --exec babel-node",

05/12/2019, 2:02 PMYou will need to run
prisma deploy -e dev.envj
Jeff
