Hello,  
I have noticed that _User key_ and _API Token_ are stored in credentials storage, and it is very good, to keep private data safe.  
However, from the user interface perspective, _User key_ is not protected, so it can be seen editing the node.  
Changing that behaviour, in case it is good, is really as simple as modifying its input type in the html file, from "text" to "password".  
Is it a reasonable change?  
Regards

I think a good place for this would be to open an issue on the github page of the node:

> **[RayPS/node-red-contrib-pushover](https://github.com/RayPS/node-red-contrib-pushover)**
>
> A Node-RED node to send Pushover notification. Contribute to RayPS/node-red-contrib-pushover development by creating an account on GitHub.

  
As you cant be sure that the developer/maintainer of the node will see it here.

That is the repo for `node-red-contrib-pushover`. The OP is talking about `node-red-node-pushover`, which is [GitHub - node-red/node-red-nodes: Extra nodes for Node-RED](https://github.com/node-red/node-red-nodes)

The issue template in node-red-nodes points to this forum in case it is a suggestion of change, so I hope they will read this.  
Thanks
