I have someone, whom I do not know, writing a script for me to send PayPal information to Google Sheets. They have requested my developer Client ID and Secret. I found those easy enough, but I am not sure if it is safe to share those with someone I do not know. Would they be able to do anything malicious? Do they even need these or can it be done completely through an ipn url?
