- Triggers - Fired automation triggers and their payloads
- Variables - Computed template variables and their dependencies
- Data models - Populated data models and their values
- Debugging logic - Verify that variables and conditional routing evaluate as expected
- Testing integrations - Confirm triggers fire with the correct payload
- Inspecting data - See exactly what responses and data models look like under the hood
The Inspector is a development tool. It is not visible to end users and it only enable for you
