About applying LID to an integration-created inspection

Integration-created inspections are typically generated automatically from a connected system and often appear in a Pending state in the Inspection Manager web portal until they are ready to be performed.

Applying Last Inspection Data (LID) lets you copy information from a closed inspection to a pending inspection, including conditions, comments, and media (photos).

Note: You can only copy Last Inspection Data from inspections that are in Closed status.


Before you begin

These checks help avoid the most common “I cannot see the inspection to copy from” issues.


Find the integration-created inspection you want to update

First, locate the property and open the inspection in edit mode to apply LID.

  • Go to: Inspections on the left-side menu

  • Locate the property with the Closed inspection you want to copy data from

  • Use the search bar to find the property for the integration-created inspection

  • Select View Inspection(s) for the property

  • Select the Edit (pencil) icon next to the Pending inspection


Apply last inspection data (LID) to the pending inspection

Once the inspection is open, choose the closed inspection you want to copy from, then select what to bring over.

  • In Edit Inspection, update the following:

    • (Optional) Update the Inspector

    • Select the Type of inspection (Ingoing, Routine or Outgoing

    • (Optional) Update the Date and Time

  • In the Clone inspection from search box, type the property address with the closed inspection

  • Use the Select dropdown to select a previous inspection

  • Select the Conditions, comments and media (photos) if available

  • Select Save to apply the LID selections to the integration-created inspection

Refresh the mobile app to sync the changes

After saving, refresh your inspection list in the mobile app so the updated inspection data appears.

  • Open the Inspection Manager app

  • Refresh the inspection list to populate the changes (for example, by pulling down to refresh)
