$ gunicorn app:app

• Shared secret between this service and the roster scheduler webapp
• Needs to be a sufficiently long random string, eg: DSAVDF+BTMgoBszC9zUJwHx1/s4Gc2ebz9oG1VjrBB8=
• Can use the OpenSSL command line tool to generate one

$ openssl rand -base64 32
DSAVDF+BTMgoBszC9zUJwHx1/s4Gc2ebz9oG1VjrBB8=

• API endpoint where the generated roster will be sent
• If the roster scheduler webapp is hosted at https://example.com, then the RESPONSE_ENDPOINT should be https://example.com/api/roster/generate/save
