GoToManage® developer tools
To access GoToManage's developer tools, click the Developers link at the bottom of any page of your GoToManage web account.
GoToManage provides the following developer tools:
- GoToManage Navigator — Navigate the entire tree in your search index.
- Index Log File tab — Choose a log file to upload and index.
- Index Raw Data tab — Paste any text into the content box, and click Index Data. Expect a slight time lag as GoToManage processes your data. Then you can search it.
- Query Sandbox tab — Enter temporary data and test-run searches and PQL statements against it. The temporary database is erased when you leave or reset this page.
- Ontology tab — Displays the organization of all the information in your database. It does not include information that your Crawler has not collected. It can, however, include data that you manually entered. This data is specific to your company. It is never combined with or affected by data from other companies. As such, the above screenshot represents a slice of one database, and not necessarily how any other database is organized.
- Search Template Tester tab — Use the Search Template Tester to construct template input requests and examine sample results.
