You got me thinking in something more, are API keys stored in plain text in DB? Otherwise I don't see a way to quickly know it's valid, I'd have to validate it against all the hashes in the DB.
With client id it'd be easy to just validate the secret against a single hash for that user.
There are lots of solutions out there for "secrets management." If you're using Kubernetes, there are some which integrate with Kubernetes. I use Spring Cloud Config where I work and it supports storing encrypted values in the configuration. What solution would be best for you depends on your software stack. (And I don't have a ton of experience with most options.) But some googling could get you more answers.
