Activating Odoo developer tools

When using Odoo as a developer, you need to know how to activate developer mode in the web interface so that you can access the technical settings menu and developer information. Enabling debug mode will expose several advance configuration options and fields. These options and fields are hidden in Odoo for better usability because they are not used on a daily basis.

How to do it...

To activate developer mode in the web interface, perform the following steps:

  1. Connect to your instance and authenticate as admin.
  2. Go to the Settings menu.
  3. Scroll to the bottom and locate the Developer Tools section:

    Alternative way
