Find synchronized items

With synchronization, you can maintain a connection between reused items and containers, monitoring them for differences and updating any that are out of sync.

  1. Use one of these methods to find synchronized items:

    • Explorer Tree — Select an item with a blue dot, which indicates that an item was synchronized.

      • Select any item in the Explorer Tree, then select View synched items from the menu.

        The project tree shows an item selected in a project and the option that is highlighted is View synced items.

        There you can select any item or container on the left to see which other items have the same global ID.

      • Single Item View — Select the Synchronized items widget to open a bottom panel, which displays all items currently synchronized with this item.

  2. (Optional) Perform any of the following actions: synchronize items, break synchronization, or connect items.
