REST API Log
During setup of the configuration of the WooCommerce connector and for general testing purposes, Tinx uses a free plugin available called the 'REST API Log'. This plugin simply logs all incoming requests and outgoing responses into and out of WooCommerce, using the REST API.
Below an example of the log. Note that this is a free and optional plugin and is not required to run the WooCommerce Connector app from Tinx. You can find the log under Tools > REST API Log after installing.
