Find out where a configuration object is used

The Show Usage functionality is available for most configuration objects and allows you to understand where a selected configuration object is used by another configuration object. For example, you may want to clean up the content area folder and delete content areas that are obsolete and no longer in use. Or perhaps you no longer know where your configured content areas are used.

Most configuration objects will display the Show Usage option when you select the object and open the context menu with right-click on the configuration object node. When you open the Show Usage dialog, the information about the selected configuration object's usage is displayed in a matrix. The selected configuration object is displayed on the X-axis and the path to the object referring to the selected configuration object is displayed on the Y-axis. A filter is available to limit the information to configurations relevant for a specified class.
