Hi,

when I click on Edit (attached screenshot), just a black screen blinks for a moment and disappears and nothing else happens.  
I was wondering how I can see the logs of those errors so that I can figure our how to resolve it.

Best,  
Saeed!

Hi,  
The “Edit” button should open the python code template file of your new scripted extension. Are you on windows? Make sure that \*.py files are assigned to open with your favourite text editor.
