Ability to filter "check feature usage" results

We have a feature that's used on 100+ pages and templates. I need to find all instances of this feature where custom field X has been set to value Y. Since there's currently no way of filtering the results of "check feature usage", I have to open all 100+ pages and templates, then manually inspect each of the relevant features. It would be great if "check feature usage" provided a more granular way to search for features.

      Hi Mark,

      We released a recipe github repository that contain collection of scripts to analyze feature and content source from PageBuilder page/templates. Check out:


      Feel free to reach out to me or your TAM about any questions.

      It is 2023 and this is still something that would really help our team. We often need to see where a component is used and don't have a good workflow to do so.

      Were you referring to this post? https://secure.tgam.arcpublishing.com/alc/answers/595/what-is-the-best-way-to-get-granular-results-on-feature-usage?show=595#q595

      If the current solution is to download the Mongo database then write a script to parse its contents, then I think it would be far more convenient if this functionality could be built into the PageBuilder admin UI instead.

      If it isn't possible to provide us access to the Q&A site, can you please copy and paste the relevant part so that I can see it? Thanks!

      Thanks Kirti, but I don't seem to have access to that Q&A site. My login isn't working. Has access been extended to the Globe and Mail developers?
