Additional Features

This page covers the lighter features of Odoo Toolbox that improve your day-to-day experience on Odoo instances, without being a full-fledged tool in their own right.

Technical model name

On any Odoo record page, Odoo Toolbox displays the technical name of the current model directly in the interface. This information was historically present in the page URL, but is no longer the case since version 17.2.

This model name is therefore only displayed on Odoo version 17.2 and later.

Technical model name

tip

This is particularly useful when writing Python code, access rules, or XML views and you need the exact model name.

PDF / HTML report preview

Odoo Toolbox adds quick access to reports directly from the print options of a record. You can access the associated report in PDF or HTML format without having to download the report every time.

Quick login buttons

Odoo Toolbox adds quick login buttons on Odoo login pages. Three buttons are available:

  • Admin
  • Demo
  • Portal
tip

This is particularly useful on development or test instances, as well as on Odoo runbots.
