Refine OAuth security
Hi, So it does not seem a security best practice to expose GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID to the user code. Google docs say that both client_id and secret_key are considered privileged data and should be secured.
So I am wondering about the security of the Google Auth example that you guys have.
Any concerns here about leaking GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID publicly?

Hmm, I don't know enough to give you a confident answer yet. However, I can provide you with some resources that might help you understand the security aspects of using Google Auth with refine:
1. Google Auth Example in Refine (https://refine.dev/docs/examples/auth-provider/google-auth)
2. Supabase Google Auth Configuration (https://refine.dev/docs/advanced-tutorials/data-provider/supabase#enable-google-auth-on-supabase)
Please review these resources and consult the official Google documentation for best practices on securing your Google Client ID and Secret Key.

yes, i suggest you too get GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID from env and should be hidden from other users.
we share our GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID publicly because these are not production apps and we want users can easily test our apps
