Quick actions for SharePoint Online
Google Chrome extension for SharePoint Online—Site, List, and REST tools in a popup.
View field names, permissions, content types, settings, and build REST queries (and much MUCH more) without leaving the page.
How it works
Stay on your SharePoint Online site. SPO-Assist uses your open tab session—no separate sign-in.
Open a SharePoint site
Any SPO site or list. Keep one tab open on the target tenant.
Launch SPO-Assist
Open the Google Chrome Extension. Site URL auto-fills, and you can pick a list or library when you need list scope.
Use Site, List, or REST Data
Run an info action, open a settings deep-link, or query a REST endpoint.
Calls to SharePoint will use the permissions for the currently logged on user.
