Expanded Insights Beyond Core Content #
X-Ray View also provides visibility into essential supporting artifacts, ensuring a complete understanding of content generation:
- Brand Themes – Verify how branding elements are applied across different content layers.
- API Definitions – Review how data integrations and external connections function within the system.
