validate access to knowledge object

Good afternoon

I am trying to perform an audit of the environmental lookups and I need to know if there is any query that allows to validate whether this knowledge object is being used or accessed

Any information is appreciated

Best regards

It's not trivial. Start by searching all of your savedsearches.conf files for the lookup file name. Then search _internal for accesses to those searches.
Then search all of your macros.conf files for the lookup file name. Find out where those macros are used then search _internal for those searches.
Finally (if I didn't forget something), search all of your dashboards for the lookup file name then search _internal for accesses to those dashboards.
