You can find documentation for the "client.id" for producers here -

> Allow Consumers and Producers to Connect with User-Agent String
> ---------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: KAFKA-9369
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-9369
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: David Mollitor
> Priority: Minor
>
> Given the adhoc nature of consumers and producers in Kafka, it can be
> difficult to track where connections to brokers and partitions are coming
> from.
>
> Please allow consumers and producers to pass an optional _user-agent_ string
> during the connection process so that they can quickly and accurately be
> identified. For example, if I am performing an upgrade on my consumers, I
> want to be able to see that no consumers with an older version number of the
> consuming software still exist or if I see an application that is configured
> to consumer from the wrong consumer group, they can quickly be identified and
> removed.
