GREAT

This is the best app ever. I am amazed by this app
by Jordan Webb, 2024-08-20

The new lightning triggers feature is not helpful, it should have an off button. It pops up on salesforce constantly and disrupts workflow. Other than that annoying feature I am not sure what this extension does. I'd give it 0 stars if I could. It has the feel of the 90s microsoft paperclip that tried to help and only got in the way.
