Use Sf Inspector with a connected app

---

If you enabled "API client whitelisting" (a.k.a "API Access Control") in your org, SF Inspector may not work anymore.

To secure the extension usage, you can use a OAuth 2.0 flow to get an access token, linked to a connected app installed in your org.

To install the default "SF Inspector Advanced" connected app, navigate to Setup | Connected Apps OAuth Usage, and click "Install" on the Salesforce Inspector Advanced app.

Warning Don't forget to grant access to the users by selecting the related profile(s) or permission set(s).

If you are a Firefox user, or if you want to have full control over the connected app settings, you can also use your own connected app by following these instructions:

1. Create a connected app under Setup | App Manager > New Connected App.
2. Set callback url to chrome-extension://chromeExtensionId/data-export.html (replace chromeExtensionId by the actual ID of the extension in your web browser). Make sure the "Manage user data via APIs (api)" scope is selected. You can leave other settings to their default values.

Warning Don't forget to replace "chromeExtensionId" with your current extension Id

1. Get Consumer Key and save it in the Options page

1. Enter the consumer key

1. Refresh page and generate new token

Migrate saved queries from legacy extension to Salesforce Inspector Advanced

1. Open data export page on legacy extension
2. Get saved queries from insextSavedQueryHistory property
3. Open it in VS Code, you should have a JSON like this one:

[
  { "query": "select Id from Contact limit 10", "useToolingApi": false },
  { "query": "select Id from Account limit 10", "useToolingApi": false }
]

From there you have two options

Import the queries by adding a label for each one with the label in query property suffixed by ":" ie.

[
  {
    "query": "Contacts:select Id from Contact limit 10",
    "useToolingApi": false
  },
  {
    "query": "Accounts:select Id from Account limit 10",
    "useToolingApi": false
  }
]

Re-import this json in the new extension (with the same key insextSavedQueryHistory)

Add custom links to "Shortcut" tab

You can update the debug level (configuration is per organization) and duration (for all organizations) on the Options page.

Warning Increasing the default duration may lead to a high volume of logs generated.

Display query performance in Data Export

To enable performance metrics for queries on the data export page, open the Options screen and select the Data Export tab, then set "Display Query Execution Time" to enabled. Total time for the query to process and, when applicable, batch stats (Total Number of Batches, Min/Max/Avg Batch Time) are displayed.

Customize extension's favicon

From the option page, you can customize the default favicon by:

• a predefined color among those values (green, orange, pink, purple, red, yellow)
• a custom favicon url (ie "https://stackoverflow.com/favicon.ico")

The customization is linked to the org, it means you can have different colors for DEV and UAT env for example.
