    This new add on is a disappointment,

    the scrolling starts and is not responsive in some cause to stop
    there is no way to output the session http, parameter, SAML , at least that I have found
    I had to get special authorities to be able to see the logs as our workplace has images they try to secure
    the icon being on the top corner of browser, doesn't really assist assist since you still have to click on it to have it start, similar to having to go to tools and open. So we gained one click but lost in having to stop filter and auto scroll.
    had to upgrade version of firefox I was using to be able to use

    all in all not happy, like the old version and functionality better it had a five star as opposed to how it is now, it was very user friendly.

    Hi!

    The last version (1.0) was released precisely to make it work with the latest version of Firefox, as with the change in the extension framework the extension stopped working. This means we had to find a compromise solution and remove some functionality in order to have the extension out as soon as possible.

    This was clearly stated in the release notes:

    > SAMLtracer is now compatible with Firefox 57 and later
    > thanks to the contribution of Jan Köhler.
    >
    > It includes a major redesign of the user interface. The ability
    > to import and export traces is missing for the moment, but
    > will be added back as soon as possible.

    That given, it makes absolutely no sense to update Firefox to install this release of the extension, as you are losing functionality and some things are likely to not work. If you weren't using the latest version of Firefox, you should have stayed with it if SAMLtracer was critical to you and you needed the ability to import/export traces.

    Resource filtering and autoscroll is still in place and working, though. Could you clarify what's the problem with those? I'm afraid I don't understand either why you say you needed "special authorities to be able to see the logs"?

    Although it works now with the new version of Firefox, v57, it lacks the possibility of importing or exporting the trace anymore. Can that be fixed please?

    I'm only giving three stars this time. Here is why....normally SAML tracer is a 5 star great extension, tremendously useful. BUT with teh new version lacking the ability to import and export.....its completely useless to me now for troubleshooting. I'll revert to an older version but I look forward to the newer update once its fixed. Overall GREAT tool!!
