Hi. Is there plans to have an openAI key be set in the project properties, like Firebase, etc., instead of within the component itself? One reason I ask is that, if one were to create a Module for OpenAI, the client using the module would have to send the key in as a Module method, so it would be exposed. Thanks, Dave ---

This is a really good call out, @David_Wolber. Appreciate you flagging it. I cannot attest to this feature specifically within Modules but for Thunkable projects in general, I know there is a group currently looking into how to protect sensitive information like API keys that are used in Thunkable apps. We will provides updates as this planning moves forward. ---
