Plugin Editor limitations

Hi @Bubble

I’m very willing to contribute to the community but the Plugin Editor is frustrating to use. There are some requests :

1/
Duplicating an already initialized API call, the copied call is also active but we may need to work on it before we publish it. Can you add a way to remove the initialization ?

2/
Using the same API, some API calls need different authentification parameters, for instance some client-side with Publishable keys whereas most of the calls use Secret Key. Using different auth ways for different calls would be good.

3/
The fact bubble doesn’t convert UNIX dates make it difficult to use. Already asked API - Returned Value - Set DATE format

4/
Can you let us write a text (info, warning, explanation…) displayed at the top of the action so we can give important info to the user in the Editor about the action ?


5/
Setting some fields are Array (List) like payment_method_types. Can’t you implement a List option, with the right format according to type of field used ?

6/
For a parameter such as line_items above, which is an array of JSON object, if we could add items like you do for Schedule API Workflow on a list, calling a list of Things and their specific values, it would bring a major simplification of our calls :

As we don’t know how many items will be needed, either we copy X times each, either we must generate JSON and Arrays with other plugins in JSON Body. However this is a standard requirement dealing with API calls.
