Snippet references

To help with content auditing and visibility, KnowledgeOwl tracks when you save an article or a custom content category containing a snippet's merge code. We save this information in the snippet's References so you can quickly locate all the places where it's used.

When you have a snippet open for editing, the righthand menu displays this References section beneath the Restrict to Reader Groups section:
