Hi,

I believe this UI Action is starting from Orlando/Paris.

It basically runs a scan whether the component Client Script, UI Policy etc is following the best practices or not

It lists down the findings.

refer the below link for more details

Using Instance Scan on Orlando/Paris instances

Runs a scan using instance scan checks whether the component Client Script, Business rule, UI Policy etc. is following the best practices or not. 

The progress tracker appears showing the status of the scan.

For example, if you execute a point scan against a business rule, only the checks that are applicable to the business rule table run, and only that single target record is scanned. If an update set scan or an application scan is executed, all records related to that update set or application are scanned. Best is to use it with for update set so you can target everything. 

 

Note: The Run Point Scan related link is available only if all the following conditions are true.

  • Available checks that are applicable to the record
  • The user has read access to the record
  • The record is on a table that extends sys_metadata
  • The role of the user must be scan_user
  • The system property glide.scan.enable_point_scan_ui_action must not be false
