let password = SamKeychain.get(service: "com.example.app.service", account: "user@example.com")

Updating Keychain Items

If you need to update the value of a keychain item, use the SamKeychain.update([key: String]) method. It requires the service name, account name, and new value. Here’s an example:

SamKeychain.update(service: "com.example.app.service", account: "user@example.com", newValue: "newSuperSecretPassword")

Deleting Keychain Items

To delete a keychain item, use the SamKeychain.delete([key: String]) method. It requires the service name and account name of the item. Here’s an example:

SamKeychain.delete(service: "com.example.app.service", account: "user@example.com")
