For example, if cacheTTL of 300 is provided, then a secret will be refetched every 5 minutes. The SDK first attempts to return the cached secret, but if no secret is found it'll make a request to get the fresh secret. Every time the secret is fetched from the cache, the cached secret expiry is reset. +To reduce the number of API requests, the SDK temporarily stores secrets it retrieves. By default, a secret remains cached for 5 minutes after it's first fetched. Each time it's fetched again, this 5-minute timer resets. You can adjust this caching duration by setting the "cacheTtl" option when creating the client. ## Working with Secrets
