Prefect Community

Hi, is there a way to retrieve the password of database? Specifically, I’d like to see the value of `PREFECT_API_DATABASE_PASSWORD`

If you have it set you can use:
```prefect config view --show-secrets --show-defaults```
if it's not set it's going to be None

Also curious. Where could I find the `--show-defaults` argument in the documentation?

in the docs: <https://docs.prefect.io/latest/guides/settings/#profiles-configuration>

Thank you. The `prefect config view --help` helps. The doc didn’t mention  `--show-secrets` argument.

Oh. Sorry, I meant to ask where to find the `--show-secrets` argument, but I typed `--show-default` instead.
