Browser Developer Tools

One way to find the needed API calls is to open up the inspecting tool within your browser. In this view, you can watch every API call being made in the application, as well as sent and response data.

  • Press F12 in most browsers (this was done in Chrome) and look for the network area

  • In the network area, you can refresh WorkBook on the top right and it will display all the calls that the program is using

...

  • An alternative way to get the console is to right-click while having the cursor on the top bar

For macOS, to open this window, go to View → Developer → Inspect Element

(macOS shortcut : option + command + I )
