It works. Just have to open the extension on your API key page for everything to link up. Per other comments, being able to select the DOM element while pressing watch would save a few steps. Also having the extension read the Groups I've setup, allowing pre-population of this field while typing, rather than having to remember exactly what groups I have, while typing would be another great enhancement.

For those who cannot add the API key: Go to the API tab of the dashboard (localhost:5000/settings#api) and open the extension. Click on sync APIC access. on the other hand, the extension is only used to redirect to the dashboard... I would have liked to be able to select an DOM element to recover....

Seems like a broken extension. No way to add API key and server IP/URL. Going into settings and then clicking the clear config button does nothing.
