The new Config Snapshot functionality in the November release is awesome. I'm assuming that additional configuration items will be added in future releases. In addition to that, it would be great to be able to schedule snapshots on a periodic basis.

Great to hear and good idea on scheduling.  What are some of the next priority items that would provide the most value in the configuration snapshot?

First of all - I too am thankful for the "Config Snapshot". I've been working with my GS team and they can attest that this has been my number 1 request for awhile now!

Moving forward, this will take over for the manual method I have used to capture my rules in excel.

Some enhancements that I would like to see are as follows:

1. In the Rules tab, please take a look at the Column labeled "Fields" (column I) - It just autowraps the fields together. It would be great if each field was on a separate line in that block - like you currently do in columns titled: Filters (col J) / Action Info (col N) / Action Criteria (col O)and others.

2. In the Rules and Fields List Tabs - Would like to see the data auto-formatted - Like you do in the Objects tab.

3. For an implementation - what tabs should we expect to see?

* In my instance, I have 3 tabs - Custom Rules, Object List and Field Tabs.

* On your website feature description - you show an additional one called "Relationship" - but not the "Custom Rules" one ( which shows it formatted 😉 )



Thus - What other tabs are available/created?

Thanks for the Great enhancements!

Thanks for the feedback Bryan. Agree with you on #1 and #2
On #3, The tabs are fixed for all the instances. Relationship tab would appear only if relationship feature is enabled and configured.

Thanks Dave. 
Scheduling the snapshots on a periodic basis is part of the enhancement list.
