# Viewing the client secret for a resource

You can use the PingOne console to get the client secret for an existing resource. This feature allows you to get a client secret without having to make an API call.

## Steps

1. Go to **Applications > Resources** and browse or search for the resource.

2. Click the resource entry to open the details panel.

3. On the **Overview** tab, locate the **Client Secret** section. Click the **Eye** icon next to **Client Secret** or **Previous Client Secret** (custom resources only) to make the secret readable.

4. To copy the client secret, click **Copy to clipboard**.
