CloudBolt Content Navigator

A Visual Studio Code extension for browsing and syncing CloudBolt content by human-readable name instead of Global ID

Cloud Management Platform (CMP) stores content in git using ID-based directory names like BP-50pq8bqg/. The CloudBolt Content Navigator extension reads the metadata files in your local repo and shows content by name in the VS Code sidebar, so you can find and sync items without cross-referencing the CMP UI.

Installation

Install the extension from the Visual Studio Code Marketplace.

  1. Open Visual Studio Code.
  2. Open the Extensions view by selecting the Extensions icon in the Activity Bar on the side, or by pressing Ctrl+Shift+X (Cmd+Shift+X on macOS).
  3. In the search box, type CloudBolt Content Navigator.
  4. Locate the extension in the results and select Install.
  5. Once installed, reload VS Code if prompted.

After installation, the CloudBolt Content Navigator view appears in the VS Code sidebar when you open a folder containing a CMP content repository.

Configuration and usage

Before configuring the extension, ensure a Source Code Repository is configured in your CMP instance, pointing to the same remote git repository as your local clone. See Integrate a Remote Source Code Repository.

For setup instructions, configuration options, and usage details, refer to the CloudBolt Content Navigator page on the Visual Studio Code Marketplace.
