Configuration Snippets (Cloud Management)
A snippet is a configuration object, or grouping
of configuration objects, that you can associate with a folder.
You can use snippets to standardize a common base configuration
for a set of Prisma Access deployments. You can associate a set
of snippets that contain all of the required network and policy configurations
with the folder that the new Prisma Access belongs to.
Snippet
associations have a top-down priority in the event of conflicting
values. This means that if the first and the last associated snippets
have different values for the same object, the value from the first
snippet is inherited by the deployment. Additionally, all configurations
inherited from a snippet can be overridden at the child folder or
deployment.
Snippets are deployed in the Preview
mode in this release. Adding or deleting a snippet is not supported.
Snippet properties such as Name, Description, Root in, Created,
Last Updated, and Labels are non-configurable in this release.

- Office 365 snippet includes all the configuration required to enable Microsoft 365.
- Explicit Proxy snippet provides guidelines on the recommendation on ordering security policies that you need to successfully deploy Prisma Access Explicit Proxy.
For new Prisma Access
deployments, the following snippets help you enable the following
use cases. You can edit these snippets to re-associate with any
folder or deployment.
- Optional Default snippet associated with the Prisma Access container includes all the recommended security policies that should be in your security policy rulebase.
- Office 365 snippet associated with the Prisma Access container includes all the configuration required to enable Microsoft 365.
