Debugging

When debugging the CMS with Git Gateway you must:

1. Have a Netlify site with Git Gateway and Netlify Identity enabled. An easy way to create such a site is to use a template, for example the Gatsby template

2. Tell the CMS the URL of your Netlify site using a local storage item. To do so:

   1. Open http://localhost:8080/ in the browser
   2. Write the below command and press enter: localStorage.setItem('netlifySiteURL', 'https://yourwebsiteurl.netlify.app/')
   3. To be sure, you can run this command as well: localStorage.getItem('netlifySiteURL')
   4. Refresh the page
   5. You should be able to log in via your Netlify Identity email/password
