Hi @ivan - Loving the new email search feature ❤ - Is it possible to search for a specific email address and it show you all the places it appears across the different email sections, Form Submit, Inline Edit, Action Link or Tasks.

@ivan  
This is great. Can’t wait to see what you do next with KTL.

I’m glad I didn’t see this last night or I would have used it instead of experimenting with python.

I created two scripts. One that grabs all Scene, View, and Field IDs from your JS (in your ide) and writes them to a .csv file. Then the second uses this same public api and grabs all the same from the current version of your app and gives you a report of what’s been orphaned.

I probably would have just gone id by id in your tool rather than create those scripts if I had seen it before I started. I started down that road with [https://knack-explorer.austinmobility.io/](https://knack-explorer.austinmobility.io/) but their UI/UX isn’t quite as user friendly as yours.

Thanks for sharing!

Great, thanks for the feedback!

Orphaned view identification is coming soon to the navigator.

Feel free to use what I (well, really Gemini and I ) came up with if it helps you. I pushed both the Python Scripts and a Chrome extension to a public Github repo.  
Forum topic here:

> [@Knack Audit Toolkit - Free Tool: Find broken View/Scene references in your Custom JS (Python Script + Chrome Extension)](https://forums.knack.com/t/knack-audit-toolkit-free-tool-find-broken-view-scene-references-in-your-custom-js-python-script-chrome-extension/20112):
>
> Hey All, I recently went down a rabbit hole trying to clean up some large, long lived Knack apps. I realized I had a lot of Custom JavaScript referencing Views and Scenes (view\_12, scene\_45) that I had deleted at some point. I wanted a way to audit my code and find these “dead links” automatically. These don’t usually break the code, but they sure make it messy. I started with a Python script but eventually wrapped the logic into a full Chrome Extension. I’m sharing the journey and the tools…

Thank you for making this! I find it more intuitive than the other options I’ve tried such as [https://knack-explorer.austinmobility.io/](https://knack-explorer.austinmobility.io/) or the no longer available [Knack Redirect Page - Knack: No-Code Application Development Platform](https://find.knack.com/definitions)

Great job!

Thanks, Spencer!

I highly encourage everyone to make feature requests. You can post them here or use the link in the app.
