-- This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
-- See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

local secrets = chilkat.Secrets.new()

-- On Windows, this is the Windows Credentials Manager
-- On MacOS/iOS, it is the Apple Keychain
secrets.location = "local_manager"

-- Pass an empty JSON object to list all secrets.
