The secret we use for the auth plugin has expired and subsequently users can't log into the portal that are using oauth as the method and I don't have an admin user that has local creds (will sort after the fact). Where can i update either in the config files or i assume likely the database the secret value for the plugin?

    You need an admin login to update this. Ask around for an admin account or have someone create it for you. If you have one but can't login as it's locked to OAuth2 then 1.) You are always supposed to have an admin with local creds specifically for cases like this 2.) you will need to go to the db, _staff table, find the staff record, and set their backend to NULL. Once you do this and can login you can navigate to Admin Panel > Manage > Plugins, click on the OAuth2 plugin, click the desired instance, updated the secret, make sure nothing was auto-filled by the browser, and save changes.

    Cheers.
