Prefect Community

hey guys, if I want to check for the existence of a secret, is the best way to do that through `prefect.context.get('&lt;SECRET NAME&gt;')` or should I use the `Secret()` class?

Hey <@U018SP8MX7E>, I think it would be `Secret().get()` because the first one means it’s in context already (and cloud secrets might not be there).

For local secrets on server, the context might work

`Secret().get()` will throw a KeyError if the secret doesn't exist right? So i can manage it like a normal python exception?

or is there something I should be aware of?

sounds good, appreciate the response :slightly_smiling_face:
