Editing JS in Manage Files
Does anybody know why the Manage Files UI allows editing plain text files such as CSS or TXT, but not JS? It'd save a lot of clicks when testing if it allowed editing JS.

Hi @Dexter.E.247
I don't think I have exactly the answer you want- but I can tell you that the option to edit code in the HTML editor was released in 2019.
Feedback like yours can help to make real change in the platform. The release in 2019 was inspired by ideas shared by Customers in the Product Idea Exchange.
It looks like you may not yet have access to that tool but you can gain access by updating your profile, and submitting your idea in the new PIE Experience. -
Hi Stefanie. Whenever I try accessing PIE I get a blank page that says "create session-5", and I can't find anything about this error anywhere. I've tried whitelisting the domains involved, different browsers, and different connections. Do you know what that error might mean?
