Where to find the documentation for wwLib methods and functions? I found this comment someone left regarding interacting with weweb elements using custom code:

“Hi @devika You can do that using this method available  
**wwLib.wwVariable.getValue(“variable\_id”)**  
**wwLib.wwVariable.updateValue(“variable\_id”,newValue)**  
Also to find the any variable id you can simply fetch all the variable id’s or (details of collections,workflows etc) with this method  
**wwLib.$store.\_state.data.data.variables**  
**wwLib.$store.\_state.data.data.collections**  
You can try above methods in the browser console as well or in the **More \> Development \> Show dev information** ”

where did this person find these methods? Wherre can I find list of all such methods to interact with weweb elements and worflows using custom JS from the outside ? I tried to look through weweb’s documentation but couldn’t find a thing related to that. Thanks!

Did you check the [developer documentation](https://developer.weweb.io/)? It’s not comprehensive, but it contains all the information that we have public

I cant find any section in the docs where it references methods one can use. Can you drop a link to it if possible? Thanks!

I found a workaround, ill leave it here in case someone finds it useful.

In the browser console type wwLib and hit enter, it should return all global functions and methods in wwLib.

We are in the process of defining what we want to make public and support on the long term, we make the signature of our methods more uniform, clear many things, when ready we will release a complete documentation to help you build with theses functions!
