Use general controls

A list of basic controls in VS Code.

Add a new item

To add a new item such as a module, connection, or webhook, right-click the corresponding folder and click the New <item> option.

Each time the prompt appears, you are asked to fill in information about the newly created item. Follow the indicated prompts to create an item. Your new item appears under the corresponding folder.

Edit the source code

To start editing the source code, find the item to edit in the left menu and click it.

A new editor will appear and the current source will be downloaded from Make.

You can edit it as a normal file. If your app contains some RPCs or IML functions, you will see auto-complete suggestions for them.

Use the shortcut CTRL+S to upload the source code back to Make.

Edit metadata

To edit metadata (for example, to change a label of a module), right-click the desired item and select the Edit metadata option from the menu.

In the prompt, change allowed values. If you don't want to change a value, skip the field by pressing the Enter key.

Change the connection or webhook

To change the attached connection or webhook of an item, right-click the item and select the Change connection (or webhook) option from the menu.

In the prompt, change the connection or webhook. If possible, there will also be an option to unassign the current connection without assigning a new one.

You will also see a prompt to assign an alternative (secondary) connection. The alternative connection should not be the same as the main connection. You can leave it empty.

Delete an item

To delete an item, right-click it and select Delete.

You will be asked to confirm the deletion. If you answer Yes, the item will be deleted from the app.

Generate the interface code

Use the Interface Generator to generate an interface.
