Querying an inventory collection by using filters

After you collect inventory data, you can use the filter capabilities in AWS Systems Manager to query a list of managed nodes that meet certain filter criteria.

To query nodes based on inventory filters

  1. Open the AWS Systems Manager console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/systems-manager/.

  2. In the navigation pane, choose Inventory.

  3. In the Filter by resource groups, tags or inventory types section, choose the filter box. A list of predefined filters is displayed.

  4. Choose an attribute to filter on. For example, choose AWS:Application. If prompted, choose a secondary attribute to filter. For example, choose AWS:Application.Name.

  5. Choose a delimiter from the list. For example, choose Begin with. A text box is displayed in the filter.

  6. Enter a value in the text box. For example, enter Amazon (SSM Agent is named Amazon SSM Agent).

  7. Press Enter. The system returns a list of managed nodes that include an application name that begins with the word Amazon.

Note

You can combine multiple filters to refine your search.
