The Designer IDE contains a built-in interface for debugging server-side low-code steps in Profound API and Rich Display File applications.
Launching Debug Targets
When possible Designer will automatically determine how to launch a file opened for debugging. When Designer cannot determine how to launch a target for debugging, a user can manually run the API route or code in a separate browser tab/window and add the debug session ID as the value for the dbgid URL parameter; then, the server will know to link that running application with the IDE's debugging session.
Launching Profound API Routes for Debugging
To debug Profound API routes, start debugging a Profound API file, and then click on the "Execute" button in the "Test" tab on the right-middle panel of the API Designer.
