Chrome extension to help with Einstein Analytics v2
Image from store
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 14/5/2021
- Fixed to work with new changes coming in Summer 21? (run in sandbox)

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)
