Resource Explorer

Resource Explorer

Resource Explorer is the inventory-first view of your environment. Use it to find any resource Prancer has crawled and see, at a glance, whether it currently passes or fails compliance — without writing a query.

Before you start

  • A snapshot has been generated for at least one connector — see Snapshot.
  • Compliance has been run so each resource has a Pass / Fail status — see Run compliance.

Search resources

Combine any of the following filters and click Run:

| Filter | Notes |

| --- | --- |

| Collection | The collection that owns the connector. |

| Connector | A connector inside the selected collection. |

| Subscription Id | Azure connectors only. |

| Account Id | AWS connectors only. |

| Project Id | GCP connectors only. |

| Branch Name | Git connectors only. |

| User | The user defined in the connector file. |

| Region | Cloud region (provider-dependent). |

| Resource Type | E.g. AWS::S3::Bucket, Microsoft.Storage/storageAccounts. |

Each row shows the resource name and its compliance status:

  • ✅ Right icon — every test for this resource passed.
  • ❌ Cross icon — at least one test failed.

!Search resources

By default, the result reflects the latest scan. Pick a date range to query historical compliance state:

!Search with date

Inspect a resource

Select a resource to open its dashboard:

  • Total Passed and Failed test cases.
  • Current overall status.
  • First crawl date and resource path.
  • The full list of test cases with individual outcomes.

Tip: Save your most-used filter combinations so you can re-open the same scoped view in one click.
