Extension summary

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.

Fantastic for, among other things, determining which automations are able to be combined. Love the addition of the "Update All" button! A true time saver, great UX feature.

Se você é desenvolvedor do marketing cloud, essa é uma extensão obrigatória. Nela você consegue rastrear rapiadmente Data Extensions, Atividades de Automação, Verificar automações sem precisar pausar, e consegue copiar data schema de dados para usar no relacionamento de dados para construir Queries no chatgpt. É A MELHOR FERRAMENTA.

Love it but we have different instances. How can I use it in another instance? It seems to be stuck to the instance I first used it with.
