SP Reveal

Toolkit for SharePoint lists: show internal names, copy item and list URLs or API paths, duplicate items, inspect fields.

SP Reveal is a powerful and specialized browser extension tailored for SharePoint Online power users, site administrators, and consultants who demand enhanced visibility and efficiency while working within SharePoint environments. It acts as an indispensable toolbox that integrates seamlessly into your browser, elevating your workflow by unveiling hidden SharePoint information and streamlining common administrative and development tasks. Whether you’re troubleshooting, automating, or managing content, SP Reveal brings critical data and tools directly to your fingertips, right within the modern SharePoint experience. SharePoint’s user interface often conceals vital details such as internal field names, unique item IDs, and API URLs, which are essential for custom workflows, scripting with Power Automate, API integrations, or field mapping validations. Manually hunting for this information through settings pages or complex scripts can be time-consuming and prone to error. SP Reveal eliminates these frustrations by providing instant access to this hidden data with a well-designed, user-friendly popup interface that works consistently across all major SharePoint Online tenants, including sites hosted on .com, .us, .de, .mil, and .cn domains. The extension is engineered for robustness and reliability. Utilizing privileged access modes along with modern browser APIs, SP Reveal delivers accurate context awareness by leveraging SharePoint’s own global page variables (like window._spPageContextInfo). This ensures that list detection and item context identification work flawlessly, even around common page quirks and dynamic content. Its content scripts operate silently behind the scenes, injecting inspection tools and overlays without disrupting your experience, all while maintaining a clean, branded popup that focuses on simplicity and clarity. With SP Reveal, you can instantly reveal internal SharePoint field names as easy-to-read labels superimposed on the page, a feature indispensable for developers and administrators. It also enables immediate copying of item URLs, list URLs, REST API endpoints, and globally unique IDs with just one click, avoiding tedious manual browser navigation or guesswork. When you need to delve deeper, the “Show All Fields” modal dialog surfaces every field of the current item along with their values and metadata in a structured, searchable format. Additionally, the extension supports duplicating the current list item, aiding rapid testing scenarios by cloning all accessible data instantly. For advanced operations, SP Reveal offers the ability to manually enter or override an item ID, giving precise control to inspect or copy information for any specific SharePoint item, even if you are not currently on that item’s page. Clipboard integration is seamless and reliable, utilizing both modern web clipboard APIs and fallback legacy methods to ensure consistent copy functionality regardless of browser state or permissions. Key Features: - Instant Reveal of SharePoint Internal Field Names: Display every internal logical field name for the current list or item to facilitate scripting, automation, and troubleshooting. - Copy Item URL, API URL, and Item ID to Clipboard: Extract and copy essential URLs and identifiers effortlessly with a single click, eliminating manual searching. - View and Copy List GUID, List URLs, and API Endpoints: Access deep list context necessary for integration and advanced customization tasks. - Duplicate Current List Item: Quickly clone the current item’s data, accelerating development, testing, and content management workflows. - Inspect All Item Fields in a Structured Dialog: Launch a detailed modal that presents every field, value, and metadata in a searchable, scrollable interface for auditing SharePoint content. - Manual ID Entry and Override: Input a specific item ID to override detection and perform focused inspection or copy actions on any item of choice. - Seamless Clipboard Integration: Utilizes modern and fallback clipboard methods for consistent and reliable copy operations across browsers and contexts.
