Bogdan Nazaruk 2024-02-04: Uh, tried contacting the author to help fixing the extension, but failed. So I just made a fixed version from scratch instead: https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/universal-adobe-debugger/ehadnibhemgjphdjgkallndphbghlpkn?hl=en-US

Kathy Dyer 2023-10-31: I can't watch my metrics, I'm just seeing an error message that I can't understand :( Adobe Client Data Layer v2.0.2 has already been imported/initialized on this page. You may be erroneously loading it a second time.

Anonymous 2022-05-05: As an implementation engineer, this is by far the best debugging extension for Adobe Analytics. I've tried others (Omnibug, ObservePoint, AEP Debugger, Exp Cloud Debugger). I love that it prints all server call details right there in the console where I spend most of my time. No separate tab or window. Tomas deserves to be paid many $$$ for this but he maintains it for free. Thank you, Tomas!
Arun Kumar P 2021-05-05: Have issue in viewing all the variables related to particular page. Same has been viewed in one of my client machine.
Søren Høyer 2021-04-15: I absolutely loved the console output, however when using EDDL with the ACDL Launch extension, I found out that it reported the wrong order of events compared to inspecting the events array on the datalayer and also compared with the Adobe Experience Platform debugger, which was able to correcly console.log the right order of the events. So unfortunately have to use AEP debugger now instead of this, but this extension definitely would be my preferred one, if this is fixed.

Ricardo Marques 2018-07-31: Works great. Brilliant tool! Love the fact that it prints all the info in the console and you don't need to switch between different tabs in devtools.

Anonymous 2018-07-27: Works great most of the time, kudos! I would recommend using this tool as well as the latest updated tool here when you run into issues just to be sure before you go back and forth with a client troubleshooting. In my case, this plugin worked perfectly for 85% of the tracking (especially when I needed to see everything logged, not just the current page). However, when I had to track some custom download links or custom events, there were some cases where the other tool worked better. https://marketing.adobe.com/resources/help/en_US/sc/implement/debugger_install.html Thanks for the plugin!
Will Bryant 2018-04-18: Great way to view the Adobe Analytics call inside console. Not sure another tool that allows this functionality. Saves time by not having to constantly switch between tabs in the dev tools.

Alison Villazon 2017-10-05: Indispensable tool for debugging analytics. So helpful to see the analytics output in the console, alongide error logs.

Matt Trześniowski 2017-04-27: Very useful tool for debugging. The only thing that comes to my mind - it takes so much space in the console. Having a header with page name / event / custom link and collapsed rest of the data would be great.

Ryan P 2016-08-15: I won't be using this extension after the recent update. The most recent update substantially increases the amount of space it takes up within the console. It also doesn't differentiate between page view and custom link hits which you would expect anyone serious about web analytics debugging to be interested in.

Josh Kadis 2015-04-03: Would give it 5 stars except for one bug. It only prints to the console if the page is the active window when loading. If you open dev tools in a new window and refresh from there, the debugger won't print in the console.

Panagiotis Tzamtzis 2015-02-02: Great plugin, really useful. This would be an absolute if there was also support for POST requests :) (After AppMeasurement 1.4.1 Adobe will switch to a POST request for calls that include more than 1900-2000 characters)
