AEM Granite Workflow Secrets

[dbenam]

Hello!

I have developed a custom granite workflow using Java for AEM 6.5 which uses the AWS SDK for Java to invalidate Amazon CloudFront cache for a page the workflow runs on. I am required to pass in authentication secret tokens to use this SDK. What is the best way to pass in secrets to an AEM granite workflow so that the credentials do not get compromised?

Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

Thanks Saravanan! I just implemented this on my workflow and it's working great. Much appreciated!
