In this video we see a Python example of how to use your Ensign API keys safely. This will be particularly useful for beginners who are not yet comfortable with modifying their bash profile or environment variables. The method shown in this video is to store the client.json file (which contains the ClientID and ClientSecret values need to establish a connection to your Ensign topic) inside the repository for your project, load the file in your code, and gitignore the file to ensure it is not accidentally committed to version control.
