Bugs in the middle of the way
OpsiMate bugs fixing
During the development of the new Coralogix integration, I ended up discovering two UI bugs — because of course things like this always happen, right?
- The first issue was a missing icon. This one was extremely small: a one‑line fix in a single file. Honestly the PR felt almost too tiny.
- Fortunately, another bug appeared at exactly the right time. This one involved a UI element that refused to trigger properly, which required a bit more investigation and work.
Missing dog
- In my first blog post, I mentioned that OpsiMate includes a DataDog integration. Ironically, the dog went missing

- I attached the screenshot directly to the issue. It more or less explains the entire situation by itself https://github.com/OpsiMate/OpsiMate/issues/557.
- I wasn’t sure if I had to follow the full issue template… describing such a simple visual bug felt also a little bit painful.
- The fix was straightforward, and again, a screenshot was enough to show the completed result: https://github.com/OpsiMate/OpsiMate/pull/560

Indifference button
- The other issue was a button labeled “Add Provider” that refused to open the sidebar.
- While researching good tools for recording UI interactions, I discovered ScreenToGif: https://github.com/NickeManarin/ScreenToGif . It turned out to be incredibly useful, and I used it to record a small gif video and attach it to the issue.

- You can see the lively demonstration right in the issue: https://github.com/OpsiMate/OpsiMate/issues/558. It’s one of those situations that is very hard to explain clearly with text alone.

- The root cause was improper state management. Once I identified which component and function were supposed to be triggered, the fix itself was not too difficult.
Reflects
Overall, even when you focus on a single PR, bugs still have a way of appearing continuously (sadly). There’s never a shortage of issues to work on — you don’t have to worry about “running out” of them.
