Getting Started with Make.com Developer Tools

First things first, you’ll need to install the Make.com Developer Tools. Head over to Chrome extensions, search for Make.com Developer Tool, and hit install. 🔧 Easy peasy! Now, let’s dive into the functionalities that make this tool a must-have.

Live Stream Debugging

One of the standout features is the Live Stream. By pressing Ctrl + Shift + I, you can open the inspection window. Here, you can see real-time data, errors, and requests for your scenarios. This is invaluable for troubleshooting. 🛠️

Scenario Debugger

The Scenario Debugger is your go-to for in-depth analysis. For example, if you’re working with Google Sheets, you can see headers, request bodies, and returned data packets. This is especially useful for identifying why a particular module is failing. 🕵️‍♂️

Module Management

Managing modules becomes a breeze with the Show Module ID feature. Always keep this turned on to see module ID numbers, crucial for coding and using developer tools. You can focus on specific modules, find modules using particular keywords, and even copy mappings. 📋

Copy Mapping

The Copy Mapping feature is a game-changer. Whether you’re adding or updating rows in Google Sheets, this tool lets you copy mappings from one module to another. Just enter the source and target module IDs, and voila, your mappings are copied! 🚀

Filter Management

The Copy Filter tool works similarly. It allows you to copy filter properties from one module to another, saving you tons of manual work. Just specify the source and target modules, and you’re good to go. 📑

Swap Connections

If you ever need to change accounts, the Swap Connection feature is your friend. For instance, if you switch Google Sheets accounts, this tool updates all related modules in one go. 🖥️

Variable Management

The Swap Variables function is handy but requires caution. It works well for simple data but can fall apart with complex formulas. Always double-check your formulas after using this tool. 🔄

App Upgrades

Upgrading apps is seamless with the Swap App feature. Whether you’re moving from an old API to a new one or switching between apps, this tool simplifies the process. 🔄

Miscellaneous Tools

• Base64 Encoding: Not commonly used but available.
