Expose API Calls in RNA

Currently when testing any workflow for e.g. authentication failure, the logs are not verbose enough to show details of failure nor the details of API's calls being made. This makes it difficult to identify what is contributing to the failure.

    How can a user sort out the difference between a working curl command and a failing block?

    More trace level detail visibility still needed beyond what core dump can show.

    Some integrations are unusable without directly referencing the vendor documentation. These integrations also do not provide any information about the payload structure and whether or not the payload would match the documented structure.

    Ask is to be able to see headers, body, etc in the requests that blocks send.

    1. Any errors or situations like this that arise in the integrations should be reported as bugs. These should be fixed so that they "just work" or so that there is enough information provided in the UI to make them work.

    2. There is a "core dump" log level that can be engaged in the settings. Gear icon >> System Configuration >> General Settings >> On Error Behavior
    This will return the full state of all variables and blocks when an exception happens in a flow

    3. The risk we would introduce with increasing the verbosity is that the trace data returned can expose secret credential information. On of the key tenets of the product is that that situation should be impossible.
