</Step> <Step title="Generate dynamic secrets"> Once you've successfully configured the dynamic secret, you're ready to generate on-demand credentials. To do this, simply click on the 'Generate' button which appears when hovering over the dynamic secret item. Alternatively, you can initiate the creation of a new lease by selecting 'New Lease' from the dynamic secret lease list section.

When generating these secrets, it's important to specify a Time-to-Live (TTL) duration. This will dictate how long the credentials are valid for.

<Tip>
	Ensure that the TTL for the lease falls within the maximum TTL defined when configuring the dynamic secret.
</Tip>


Once you click the `Submit` button, a new secret lease will be generated and the credentials for it will be shown to you.

Audit or Revoke Leases

Once you have created one or more leases, you will be able to access them by clicking on the respective dynamic secret item on the dashboard. This will allow you to see the expiration time of the lease or delete a lease before it's set time to live.

Renew Leases

To extend the life of the generated dynamic secret leases past its initial time to live, simply click on the Renew button as illustrated below.

<Warning> Lease renewals cannot exceed the maximum TTL set when configuring the dynamic secret </Warning>
