Values and their sources
See every applied configuration value and which provider it comes from, such as appsettings.json or an environment variable.
Open source Umbraco package
See where every Umbraco setting comes from
Cultiv Environment Inspect adds a dashboard to the Settings section that shows the configuration values currently applied to your site and where each one comes from, such as appsettings.json or Umbraco Cloud environment variables.
Why isn't my setting working?
When a value you expected to apply has no effect, the first question is where the applied value actually came from. The dashboard shows every applied value with its source, so you can see whether an environment variable or another provider overrode the one you expected.
Crumpled Dog took over this project, ported it to Umbraco 17 and released that as version 2. We also backported some features to version 1.1.0, for Umbraco 13.
What it does
Everything works out of the box, with optional configuration to hide or redact sensitive values.
Search and favourites
Filter by key, value or provider, and star important keys to pin them to the top. Preferences are saved per user.
Redaction
Redact sensitive values fully, partially or by picking out parts of connection strings, and exclude keys with regex patterns.
Copy in one click
Copy keys and values, and switch keys to environment variable format, such as UMBRACO__CMS__SETTING.
Azure Web App export
Optionally copy configuration as ready-to-use Azure Web App JSON snippets.
Hot reload
Configuration changes are applied automatically, and thousands of entries scroll efficiently.
