Node Custom Properties uses report

mesverrum over 4 years ago

I have been using this report for some time to identify what the potential impacts of making changes to a custom property are.

It looks through all the properties, then checks them against the following common use cases

Alert trigger/reset conditions

alert actions

group definitions

account/view limitations

views

resources/widgets

reports

Just import the xml file in as a report and you will be all set. It can be slow to load in some environments.

Is there an easy way to modify this for custom interface properties?

@mesverrum - Cheers, this is very handy. I was wondering though, if it can be changes so that I can see which alerts hold specific custom properties? For example I have two Environment Custom Properties that I would like to combine, but I am unsure if any alerts are utilising the one I want to get rid of.
