03/16/2023, 2:59 PMFor WEM service I think you coudl do something wiht API's https://developer.cloud.com/citrixworkspace/workspace-environment-management/docs/what's-new But I know you use onprem so I think you are stuck with sql. What if you got an export of the database to put in your own just to query against.

03/16/2023, 3:08 PMThere is a backup functionality in wem which you can do for config sets and it creates a set of json and xml files. Not sure how easy it would be to use that for comparison. Doesn't seem easy.

03/16/2023, 3:10 PMYeah, that was my first thought, but even making the format more readable doesn't help. Still way quicker to just do it manually. It's not a huge deal, and it'd be great if Citrix created a comparison tool/option in the GUI, hint hint...
