Security Markdown

Reviewer Prompt

When documenting features that involve sensitive data, authentication, or privileged operations, explicitly state the security implications and use appropriate warning levels to ensure users understand potential risks.

This includes:

  • Using :::warning instead of :::important when documenting features that could expose sensitive information like API keys
  • Clearly explaining the scope and privileges associated with API keys, especially for superuser accounts
  • Including security considerations for file handling, such as data retention, access controls, and deletion procedures
  • Providing guidance on protecting sensitive data when using features like file uploads or flow exports

Example from API key documentation:

:::warning
An API key represents the user who created it. If you create a key as a superuser, then that key will have superuser privileges.
Anyone who has that key can authorize superuser actions through the Langflow API, including user management and flow management.
:::

This practice helps users make informed security decisions and prevents inadvertent exposure of sensitive information through better awareness of security implications.
