Could you please fix the error that is always shown in the console? "Unchecked runtime.lastError: Could not establish connection. Receiving end does not exist." Looks like your event sending via ports is not working correctly.

Used to work (for analytics debugging). Now it doesn't The old Experience CLOUD debugger worked great. Then Adobe added new features (bloat) to create this new Experience Platform Debugger and now you have to scroll down, past all the unwanted detail to get to the actual data you're interested in (page name, eVars, props, etc). There's no filter or sort available, so just endless scrolling. Then (Sep 2023) they added a (unwanted) 'Jump to most recent' button and broke it completely. It currently doesn't record the page view on each new navigation and it regularly shows single characters for the variables so it is completely unusable.

When this extension is running, it inserts several <script> tags BEFORE the <head> tag which seems to break tags that are loaded after this happens if they are using the insertBefore() method (which most tags do). The result is half of our tags from Data Collection get loaded and the rest just silently fail. Disable the extension and they all load perfectly fine. This is unfortunate since the only thing I find useful with this extension is being able to load a specific library for testing. So I keep it around for when I absolutely need it. Then I forget it's enabled until I run into a situation where I notice a tag isn't firing. Clunky and cumbersome.

Safety

Risk impact

Adobe Experience Platform Debugger is very risky to use and it requires a lot of sensitive permissions. Avoid installing this extension unless you absolutely trust this publisher.
