Summary

Analyze keywords

Salesforce Marketing Cloud Companion Tool. ** In Active Development - Please report any bugs via the Options -> Feedback/Bugs form **

This tool allows you to quickly navigate through your Marketing Cloud objects (such as Automations, Queries, Data Extensions and more) to find where they are saved, what activities are using them, and what other objects they interact with.

For example: By clicking on a Data Extension - you can see what Queries target that Data Extension, and what Queries reference that Data Extensions in their code! By clicking on a Query - you can see a list of all the Data Extensions referenced in the Query, and the details of the target data extension; as well as all of the Automations that are using that Query! By clicking on an Automation - you can see all of the activities exactly as you would in Automation Studio, and you can navigate to each of those activities to see their details.

At any time, you can click on the Blue Link box to be taken directly to that activity in Marketing Cloud!

The built-in Search function allows you to search every object by name so you can quickly find what you are looking for.

Object reporting gives users the ability to export detailed inventories of objects in their Marketing Cloud instance.

This is a FANTASTIC resource for understanding any individual element's role in your SFMC instance's ecosystem. The one (and only) potential snag is that it doesn't identify EVERY place that an element is referenced...for example, a DE referenced via ampscript/ssjs lookup in a script or content block won't come up in the list of references. That's less of a problem though and more of a thing that can be almost completely trivialized if you build stuff out with that caveat in mind. I'd STRONGLY recommend this to anyone working in SFMC in ANY capacity. It's effectively as invaluable as SF Inspector in Sales/Service Cloud, and that's a pretty high bar to clear.
