The analysis and classification of gaugings of supergravity theories is a crucial task required to differentiate models with distinct physical properties and construct new solutions of interest, for instance, for flux compactifications and/or holography. I will discuss general methods to classify solutions and gaugings of D=4 supergravity theories, rigorously identifying their duality orbits and their deformations, providing several new interesting examples and discussing their physics.
