Steph Palomino (ID: 000000a413130e53) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 11/11/2020 Very helpful extension to debug Segment events in an easy and better way that checking the Network tab. Can the Group call be included in the extension, too? It's the only one I don't see, but it is in the network tab. Thanks a lot for developed this.

Juan Caicedo (ID: 000000eb60d6ab81) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 03/18/2019 Did something change it a recent version Chrome that caused this to break? It only tells me that it was not able to track any events, even though my Amplitude extension (which is loaded through Segment) tells me that it tracked events 😕 I'm willing to change this review if that issue is addressed 👍
