Traffic Policy Macros - ngrok documentation

ngrok offers a variety of CEL macros that can be used within the Traffic Policy engine to simplify traffic management and dynamic configuration.
These macros help you streamline traffic handling by referencing common values and conditions, making it easier to manage complex logic in your traffic policies. You can use these macros in combination with expressions and actions to create dynamic, condition-based traffic flows.

Secrets

Updates to these secrets will be reflected across all traffic policies automatically.

How secrets are secured

Secrets are protected at rest using industry standard AES-256 encryption
ngrok’s REST API does not return secrets as part of any of its response payloads
REST API traffic is encrypted in-transit using HTTP/S and TLS 1.2+

For more information on secrets, see Traffic Policy Secrets.
