'Is the Facebook Client ID safe to commit to a public repository?

I'm working on an Android app and have an app_id and a client_id in a strings.xml file. It seems the app_id is safe to commit, bus is the client_id? Sorry if this is a duplicate, any help is appreciated!



Solution 1:[1]

Yes it is safe to commit to a public repository. From the official documentation:

The client token is an identifier that you can embed into native mobile binaries or desktop apps to identify your app. The client token isn't meant to be a secret identifier because it's embedded in apps.

Emphasis mine.
