Hi,

I was trying to create a role and assign it to myself to be able to edit and delete Appfarm users from an application. Having created the role, given it the relevant permissions, and assigned it to my user, i went to check the dev tools and inspected “Current user” to see if my user roles were updated. The dev tools then threw an error / crashed (forcing a reload of the dev tools) and now it is not appearing for me anymore. Have tried to turn it on and off in the environment settings, but it still wont show in my current chrome instance. Going into incognito makes the dev tools appear again, but still crashing when trying to inspect the “Current user” object.

Removing the role from my user lets me inspect the “Current user” object in the dev tools when in incognito without it crashing, so i guess the problem is with the role. Dev tools are still not appearing in my "normal” chrome instance tho.
