IntelliJ Plugin

📘

Note

The Optimizely IntelliJ plugin currently supports Full Stack SDKs released before February 2021.

This plugin provides quick contextual access to the configuration of your Optimizely Project and is available for IntelliJ Platform-based IDEs. It is available for download on the Jetbrains Plugin Marketplace.

Based on the Optimizely Java SDK, the plugin provides a set of shortcuts and contextual links back to the relevant Optimizely entities for your development.

After installation, use the menu or keyboard shortcut to set your SDK key, which corresponds to a particular Environment in your Optimizely Full Stack Project and is available under the Settings tab.

Once the SDK key is in place, the active Experiments, Features, Attributes and Events from your Environment will be accessible both via the Dropdown menu under Tools and via keyboard shortcuts.

You can also use default autocomplete (Go, Java, Kotlin and Python) for feature methods such as isFeatureEnabled and getFeatureVariable to return only a feature key list. The same holds true for experiment methods.
