Asset Inventory

The Asset Inventory is a unified view of all your cloud resources across every connected integration. Resources from AWS, GCP, Azure, and any other synced provider appear in a single inventory with consistent schemas, searchable attributes, and organized categories.

How It Works

After you set up integrations and run a sync, your cloud resources are normalized into a common schema and loaded into the Asset Inventory. The inventory updates after each sync, so it reflects the latest state of your infrastructure.

The Asset Inventory has three main areas:

  • Left sidebar: browse resources by category
  • Main table: view, sort, and filter resources
  • Detail panel: inspect individual resource attributes (opens when you click a row)

Resource Categories

The left sidebar organizes assets into categories:

  • Compute: EC2 instances, VMs, managed instance groups
  • Storage: S3 buckets, disks, blob storage
  • Networking: VPCs, subnets, load balancers, DNS
  • Databases: RDS, Cloud SQL, Cosmos DB
  • Containers: EKS, GKE, AKS clusters and workloads
  • Identity: IAM users, roles, service accounts
  • Serverless: Lambda functions, Cloud Functions
  • Logging: CloudTrail, audit logs
  • Threat detection: GuardDuty, Security Command Center
  • And more (Administration, Batch Processing, Queues, Endpoint Management, Vulnerability Management)

Select All Resources to view everything, or select a category to filter to those resource types. Each category shows the total resource count. You can also search category names using the search field at the top of the sidebar.

Searching and Filtering

Use the search bar to find resources by any attribute. The Asset Inventory supports a purpose-built query language designed for fast, attribute-based searches without writing SQL.

Examples:

  • Find resources by IP address, name, or any property value
  • Filter by tags: tags.Environment = "production"
  • Search across tag keys: tags.*service* != ""
  • Combine conditions: region IN ("eu-west-1", "us-east-1") AND tags.Team = "platform"

The search bar provides field autocomplete and value suggestions as you type.

See the full search query syntax reference for operators, wildcards, and advanced filtering.

Saved Filters

Save frequently used filters for reuse. Saved filters can be shared with your team and reapplied from the saved filters panel. They are also available via the REST API and can be used as scopes when creating policies.

Resource Details

Click any row in the table to open the detail panel on the right side. The detail view has three tabs:

  • Resource details: the resource’s cloud provider, name, type, region, CloudQuery ID, last sync time, tags, and custom column values
  • Related resources: resources connected to the selected asset based on table relationships, with the ability to filter by resource type
  • Insights: Insights findings that affect this resource, so you can see security, cost, and compliance issues in context

Customizing Columns

Click the column settings icon to show or hide columns in the table. You can:

  • Toggle individual columns on or off
  • Show or hide all columns at once
  • Restore the default column set

Default columns include: Cloud, Resource Type, Account, Name, Region, and Tags. Custom columns appear alongside the defaults and can be toggled the same way.

Exporting Data

Use the export button to download the current filtered and sorted view as a file.

Going Deeper with SQL

For queries that go beyond the search syntax (joins across tables, aggregations, or complex conditions), use the SQL Console to write ClickHouse SQL directly against your synced data.

To analyze your inventory for security risks, compliance gaps, and cost optimization opportunities, use Insights.

  • SQL Console: run ClickHouse SQL queries against your synced data
  • Policies: define detective controls that continuously evaluate your resources
  • Reports: build visualizations and dashboards from your asset data
  • Insights: analyze your inventory for security risks, compliance gaps, and cost optimization
  • Custom columns: add computed or enrichment columns to the inventory
