Does anyone knows how I can access history of my app metadata (description, keywords and etc.)?

As a developer, I wish to create an app that has the ability to post to social media sites.Best Practices: Should I create a new account (e.g. Not my own) on those social media sites I wish my app to be able to post to?
Yes, you should create new accounts on each site. You might want to avoid getting your original accounts flagged for suspicious activity.
I've got an app with user profiles. On the users profile, I let them put links to their other social media accounts. I know app linking requires the correct app's schema and I know those schemas depend on the system (iOS, Android). I want the user to be able to just copy the url of their social media profile (http://www.whateversocialmedia.com/userprofile),paste it and save it. I will manipulate the string get the "userprofile" out and put it in the schema. HERE's the problem, Facebook, requires an ID for the schema, but most people don't know how to get their ID, while it's somewhat easy to get, it does require right clicking on a mouse and searching some code to get, Does Facebook have an api I can hit to send a username and get back a user ID? I feel like they would want people to link to their app easily. I've looked all over Graph API
I have an app which does not push any data to any server except that it uses the Firebase Analytics and Firebase Crashlytics libraries to submit analytics and crash reports to my Firebase account. My use of both of these libraries is bare minimum.
I submit analytics events as follows:
FirebaseAnalytics.getInstance(applicationContext).logEvent("SomeEvent", bundle)
I submit exceptions as follows:
FirebaseCrashlytics.getInstance().recordException(exception)
Neither the bundles submitted via the FirebaseAnalytics instance nor the exceptions submitted via the FirebaseCrashlytics instance contain any of the user's personal data or any data that identifies the user. The exceptions just convey that a certain area of the application has failed and the bundles just convey that a certain button was tapped without linking in any way to the user.
With this in mind, how do I answer the following "Data collection and security" questions in the Google Play Data Safety form:
Does your app collect or share any of the required user data types? [Yes/No]
Is all of the user data collected by your app encrypted in transit? [Yes/No]
Do you provide a way for users to request that their data is deleted? [Yes/No]
There is a repo with all required information required for the Data safety form - link
The same applies to firebase as to admob
Does your app collect or share any of the required user data types?
Yes
Is all of the user data collected by your app encrypted in transit? Yes
Do you provide a way for users to request that their
data is deleted? No
Location > Approximate location
App activity > Page views and taps in app
App info and performance > Crash logs, Diagnostics
Device or other identifiers > Device or other identifiers
How do I know this for sure?
Because under device and other identifiers the extra info states:
Identifiers that relate to an individual device, browser or app. For
example, an IMEI number, MAC address, Widevine device ID, Firebase
installation ID or advertising identifier.
Which indicates that they do consider Firebase to be collecting data
The Google Apps API allows companies to make custom integrations into the mail environment. One of the things possible is to use the Profile API to keep contact information up to date. Now that our users are starting to explore the use of Google+ and Hangouts, there comes a need to keep information in sync there too.
One of the key features of the Profile API is the ability to update the profile image (detailed here: https://developers.google.com/google-apps/profiles/#AddUpdating_photo). However, this API doesn't connect back into the Google+ platform by default so the profile images for the organization are getting out of sync.
Is it possible to set it up such that when one image is updated, the corresponding Google+ account's image is updated as well?
Currently, there is not an API for updating the Google+ profile image or other profile data.
Is there any way to post on a user's activity feed for an iOS game? There seems to be no API for this but there is a permission
user_games_activity
on https://developers.facebook.com/docs/authentication/permissions/#open_graph_perms
I have noticed that there are activity feeds for Facebook games itself, but I haven't come across an activity feed regarding an iOS app.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks!
You can post user actions/achivements from iOS by taking publish_actions extended permission, but you need backend server support. You need a public url with open graph tags for each object/achievement.
Publish actions
Allows your app to publish to the Open Graph using Built-in Actions,
Achievements, Scores, or Custom Actions. Your app can also publish
other activity which is detailed in the Publishing Permissions doc.
Note: The user-prompt for this permission will be displayed in the
first screen of the Enhanced Auth Dialog and cannot be revoked as part
of the authentication flow. However, a user can later revoke this
permission in their Account Settings. If you want to be notified if
this happens, you should subscribe to the permissions object within
the Realtime API.
If you want to post achivements, here is basic info. For more info see the below link.
The Graph API for achievements allows game developers to publish user
achievements in their game to provide more meaningful and relevant
stories.
Note: This API is only available to applications categorized as
'Games'. You can categorize your app as 'Games' in the Developer app
by navigating to About > Basic Info and selecting 'Games` in the drop
down menu in the category field.
