What inventory shows

The inventory dashboard brings together three views:

Inventory over time - click the inventory type chip to display or hide it
Inventory findings – informational results found by scans - card view
Entities – unique inventory items found across scans - card view

Each entity can generate more than one inventory finding.

Use the filters

Filter by new items

Turn on New in last scan to focus on inventory items found in the most recent scan.

Filter by root entity

Use Root entity to narrow the view to a specific top-level entity group.

Change the date range

In the Inventory over time section, use the date range selector to change the period shown on the chart.

Review inventory findings

The top part of Inventory shows informational finding cards. These cards summarise the number of findings by type.

Each card shows:

the finding type
the number of findings
an informational severity label

To explore a finding type, select the arrow on the card.

Review entities

The Entities section shows unique inventory items.

Each entity card shows:

the number of entities of that type
the entity type
the number of related findings
a Browse action which takes to a list of entities of that type

Findings vs entities

Entities are the things Glasstrail has found
Inventory findings are the informational details Glasstrail has recorded about those things
