As an administrator of an ArcGIS Online environment, it would be very useful to be able to see where a layer is used on the Item Details page of the layer itself.

This would be akin to the functionality of seeing which layers are being used in an app or map, but from the layer perspective.

I have layers that are used in many different maps and apps, and want to be able to see which maps and apps relate to which layer. Currently, I can only see where a layer is used if I go into the Item Details page of each of the maps/apps in turn.

Having this capability would be incredibly helpful. For example, it would make it easier to troubleshoot errors with layers and the resulting effect the error may have on potentially many apps/maps, of which I am not the author.
