Online Debugging Tool

We've significantly enhanced the built-in MQTT online testing tool within the EMQX Cloud console. Debugging your client connections and message flows is now simpler and more efficient:

• One-Click Debug Connection: Automatically generate temporary credentials and establish a connection for quick testing, reducing setup time.

  

• Persistent Debug Window: The tool now remains accessible as a floating window even when navigating to other console sections (like the Flow Designer), allowing you to test workflows seamlessly without losing context or switching tabs constantly.
