Debug Mode
Debug Mode
When Debug Mode is enabled, GemAutomate uses the Chrome DevTools Protocol (CDP)
Chrome DevTools Protocol (CDP)
A protocol that allows tools or applications to control Google Chrome or other Chromium-based browsers from the outside. By using this protocol, developers can automate interactions with the browser, such as monitoring network activity, inspecting the DOM, and managing web pages.
It also enables the simulation of user actions like clicking and typing, allowing developers to create automated tests, scrape data, or perform repetitive tasks efficiently.
Enable Debug Mode
You can enable Debug Mode (or error-checking mode) in two ways:
Access the Process Settings
Access the Block Settings
When Debug Mode is enabled for the entire workflow, the system will use the CDP (Chrome DevTools Protocol) to help monitor errors across all blocks.
However, if you only want Debug Mode to run on specific blocks, you can enable it individually in the settings of those specific blocks. This allows for more targeted debugging without affecting the entire process.
When to Use Debug Mode
You can use Debug Mode when you want to type text on websites that use WYSIWYG editors, such as typing a tweet into an editor or writing a message in Discord using a Input Text block.
