Use the Inspect page to view a comprehensive summary of your account configurations, from business rules to channels and organizations, all in one place. This feature simplifies managing your account and deploying changes from sandbox to production. You can also save a snapshot of your current setup for future reference. Key configurations include account settings, people, workspaces, objects, rules, apps, and integrations.

Location: Admin Center > Account > Sandbox > Inspection

Admins can use the Inspect page in Admin Center to produce a summary of their account configurations for their Zendesk environments. Rather than jumping around to each separate page, you can quickly review everything from account-level settings to business rules, channels, and organizations. This makes it easier for admins to manage the account and deploy changes from sandboxes to production accounts.

Additionally, admins can save a snapshot of an environment's current configuration as a record they can look back on if necessary.

Inspecting account configurations

Inspecting account configurations provides a big-picture view of an environment.

To inspect an account configuration

1. In Admin Center, click Account in the sidebar, then select Sandbox > Inspection.
2. Select the Environment (account) that you want to inspect.

   This can take up to 20 seconds for very large instances.
