Introduction

Developer Mode is a workspace-level setting in Copera designed to make it easier for developers to copy resource IDs directly from Copera. These IDs are often needed when building integrations using the Public API. This mode exposes contextual actions throughout the interface so developers can quickly retrieve IDs without inspecting the network or using debugging tools.

Purpose

Developer Mode exists to streamline integration development by enabling fast access to resource identifiers. It provides an efficient way to copy IDs that are otherwise hidden in the standard user interface. This feature is exclusively for copying resource IDs.

How to Enable Developer Mode

Developer Mode can be enabled in the workspace config on the top left corner: Workspace Settings → Account → Advanced → Developer Mode Error loading the image A new Advanced section is available inside the Workspace settings. Once activated, additional UI elements become available for copying IDs.

Where IDs Can Be Copied

When Developer Mode is active, users can copy IDs from multiple locations across the workspace interface.

Available Resource IDs

Users can copy IDs for:
  • Channels (via right-click on the channel item in the left side-bar)
  • Boards (via right‑click on a board item in the left side-bar)
  • Tables (via right‑click on the table item in the left side-bar or through the three‑dot menu in tables) Error loading the image
  • Columns (via right‑click on a column) Error loading the image
