Summary

This project is open source. You may view the code here before installing it: https://github.com/capeterson/Grey-Tab

Currently supports: Displaying your current orgId, salesforce hostname, and sessionId (the API-enabled one, not the crippled visualforce SID).

If the page being viewed contains apex:form viewstate data the current size of the data will be displayed as well.

If the page's URL contains an id param or is the standard SFDC record view page then the record details tab will show the raw data behind all fields your user has FLS access to.

If you have any issues, or would like to suggest improvements please use the github project's issues page.

This extension does not transmit any data to or from any systems other than the Salesforce instance(s) you use it with and/or trust.salesforce.com. Until you take explicit action of opening it no data is requested or otherwise processes. There are no ads or analytics in this extension.

It's great for Classic. Does not support LEX

Use it just about daily. Really love it!

Please update so this works with Lightning! There is nothing better than this tool that I've found - particularly for seeing API Names and also seeing fields that aren't on the page layout. But it's a pain to switch to classic every time I want to use it.
