Chrome extension to help with Einstein Analytics v2

Image from store
EADashboardHelper
Description from store

This is for use with Einstein Analytics dashboards - more specifically, on the JSON editor.
It enables a page action when editing JSON on an Einstein Analytics dashboard, and when activated, will show a menu of available steps to modify, which will bring up a code editor. It will only show custom SAQL queries and is ideal when modifying SAQL with bindings, since the standard editor won't allow direct editing.

Note: this is WIP, and feedback is always appreciated.

Updates 8/12/2022
- Updated to Manifest v3 (for future Chrome Extension requirements)
- Tweaked recipe/ dataflow execution log downloads

Updates 11/8/2021

- Tweaked SAQL editor gui for dropdown theme and font size
- Removed JSONBin backup for dataflow layouts

Updates 14/5/2021
- Fixed to work with new changes coming in Summer 21? (run in sandbox)
- As a consequence, the SAQL editor now utilises a 'contained' editor, which you can change between light/ dark theme and change the font size.
- Backups of dataset XMD's also include an 'easy' version, which has fields tweaked from system fields to allow for easy upload/ rename (compliments of Pete Lyons)

Updates 16/3/2021
- slight change to XMD backup for datasets - now includes both MAIN and user, and strip fields so it can be used directly from backup

Updates 9/3/2021
- Complete overhaul of popup - conversion to full web pages
- backup and all other API related calls utilising new format

Updates 21/9/2020

Updates 2/6/2020
- Small fix to ensure running in sandbox environments
- removed unnecessary permissions in manifest

Updates 28/1/2020

- This release should have most of functionality running with future release - have had to put in support to run with a new editor (SAQL). Note - drag drop not working on SAQL editor.
- Added job history node download for detailed dataflow run analysis.

Updates 6/11/2019

Updates 16/09/2019

Updates 14/8/2019
- added popup functionality to allow backup of recently modified objects in EA
- added shortcut (default Ctrl-Shft-S) to toggle sidebar - can be modified in extensions/ keyboard shortcuts
- added 'draggable' menu to show datasets used in current SAQL query - and SAQL functions as well (ie, can drag/ drop measures/ dims into editor)
- tweaked the static editor to allow for more room (use resizable text area)
- automatically append new lines after ';' if none present (displays nicer)

Updates 30/7/2019
- tweaked the static flex editor to provide more control over the data type (classify as string, number or object/array by toggling button)
- made side menu size adjustable by dragging bottom corner square

Updates 15/7/2019
- can show hide side by clicking on the icon
- also allows you to modify pigql style setup
- now you can right click on components to rename (including attached widgets)
- when clicking/ editing entities, it also jumps to the location in the json

Awesome tool. Can quickly navigate to the step required, deals with escaping and un-escaping characters for you, and also provide easy reference for steps to bind to.
