Illustrative workspace

  1. Project

    Check leading formula characters, tabs, commas and embedded quotes, while keeping the original application values unchanged.

  2. Review before applying

    Compare actual behavior with the expected result. If a check fails, investigate it before applying more changes.

  3. Connection

    Base URL, credentials and a reachable server.
