Similar to the way that you can see what data sources are being used in a klip, I think it would be very useful to see which klips a data source is being used it, visible from the data source. This way in case something changes in a data source, you know what klips it is going to affect. Plus as use of klipfolio grows, the more data sources are created and the more data sources are replaced and deprecated. It would be helpful to be able to go through and see which ones can be deleted without breaking something.

  That must be one long roadmap, since this post is from January 2015... Please make this possible, it is very needed here, too!

  Agreed. It is critical

  This would be hugely beneficial - when trying to manage data sources (cleaning out old ones and combining existing sources), it's a bit of a hassle to just guess where (if at all) a datasource is used. 
  
  Anything more recent than "in the roadmap" since early 2015?

  Hi Everyone,

  Thanks for your patience here and your continued support for this feature request. 

  No specific timeframe yet, however we have an active project working on the foundational elements that should make this more feasible.   

  Cheers,

  Scott.

  Hi Scott,

  thank you for the update. This feature is really very much needed on our side, as at one point we reached the limit for data source refreshes and this situation really is a pain, if there is no other way to tell than memorizing, which of the data sources are no longer in use. I now try and delete unneeded data sources, whenever I delete a klip,so I hopefully won't run into this situation anymore. But the first time this happened it really was awful :( I even tried contacting your support back then, but they had no idea how to help me. So pleeeease please please make this feature availabe soon! Thank you very much.
