It is not necessary to have matching application IDs for a development version and production version of an application. In fact, as a best practice never hard code the application ID into your application. Instead, use the application alias (defined on the Edit Application Attributes page), or use a built-in substitution string (such as APP_ID
and APP_ALIAS
). Using a substitution string is the best approach because it enables you to change the application ID without affecting any application functionality.
