Hey InboxSDK Team!

I logged into gmail today, and I noticed that the sidebar is completely gone from the UI on a message thread even after disabling the InboxSDK extension. My thought is that Google might have pushed out an update that caused this change, but this completely breaks the sidebar
functionality of InboxSDK as well. The sidebar content is not rendered anywhere. Do you know when a patch will go out for another working sidebar implementation?

Thank you so much!
-Andrew

We pushed out an update today to the sidebar, looks like that broke the sidebar in certain situations. I've rolled back the change for now and will do some debugging. Sorry about that and thanks for the bug report.

If you refresh Gmail again the sidebar should be back.

Just so you know, we're making a change to make our sidebars more tightly integrate with specific new Gmail features for users that have early access to them. It's possible that these users with early access may experience some sidebar issues as we roll this out or Gmail continues to change things. If anyone runs into any new issues, please let us know and we'll work on addressing it in a timely manner!

Hey guys,

It's broken again for us. The sidebar isn't showing up at all on our gmail accounts with InboxSDK.
