Enterprises need to enforce configuration objects and global settings consistently across all their deployments. By referencing global settings across various scopes, such as within snippets or folders, you can streamline operations, eliminate redundant configurations, and enhance centralized management. For example, using snippets you can effectively manage custom URL categories for access policy rules, threat prevention profiles, zones, addresses, and other objects that represent standard network segments.

This feature enables you to reference any common configurations or objects attached to a global scope and push them to your next-generation firewalls and Prisma Access deployments. These shared objects and configurations within the global scope are available to all snippets and snippets associated with the global scope are known as global snippets and you can reference the objects defined within these snippets from any other snippets in the configuration. This simplifies the process of managing configurations from a single location so that you can update and enforce global standards across your entire deployment.
