Where to put S3 secret when deploying using Appveyor?

Question

I've got an Appveyor project setup and working awesomely. Now, I want to upload artifacts S3 for easy hosting. This seems fairly easy as outlined in the documentation. My question is, where do I put the secret with write permission? I don't want to push it to my public repo for obvious reasons. On travis I could put it in an environment variable that was never logged. How would I go about this in Appveyor?

Answer 1

I assume you need to store this in YAML. You can use secure variables. Or you can simple put your secrets in clear text to S3 deployment configuration in UI, then save and press Export YAML and you will have YAML section with secrets encrypted.
