Akamai Developer Toolkit is a versatile Chrome extension designed for developers working with Akamai tools.

No longer seems to work. It was a pretty good tool for getting Akamai pragma headers out but it is no longer setting them. Tried a fresh Chrome profile and everything but nothing got it working.

A great tool that shows how Akamai can boost your site. A pity that the latest version 2.0.39 interferes with some applications that ran fine with previous versions. I get errors like : timesheets.cronos.be/:1 Access to XMLHttpRequest at 'https://tiaapi.cronos.be/permission/authPermissions' from origin 'https://timesheets.cronos.be' has been blocked by CORS policy: Request header field x-im-piez is not allowed by Access-Control-Allow-Headers in preflight response.
