Method: assets.list

Lists assets with time and resource types and returns paged results in response.

HTTP request

GET https://cloudasset.googleapis.com/v1p5beta1/{parent=*/*}/assets

The URL uses gRPC Transcoding syntax.

Path parameters

Parameters
parent

string

Required. Name of the organization or project the assets belong to. Format: "organizations/[organization-number]" (such as "organizations/123"), "projects/[project-number]" (such as "projects/my-project-id"), or "projects/[project-id]" (such as "projects/12345").

Authorization requires one or more of the following IAM permissions on the specified resource parent:

  • cloudasset.assets.listResource
  • cloudasset.assets.listIamPolicy

Query parameters

Parameters
readTime

string (Timestamp format)

Timestamp to take an asset snapshot. This can only be set to a timestamp between the current time and the current time minus 35 days (inclusive). If not specified, the current time will be used. Due to delays in resource data collection and indexing, there is a volatile window during which running the same query may get different results.

A timestamp in RFC3339 UTC "Zulu" format, with nanosecond resolution and up to nine fractional digits. Examples: "2014-10-02T15:01:23Z" and "2014-10-02T15:01:23.045123456Z".
assetTypes[]

string

A list of asset types to take a snapshot for. For example: "compute.googleapis.com/Disk".

Regular expression is also supported. For example:

  • "compute.googleapis.com.*" snapshots resources whose asset type starts with "compute.googleapis.com".
  • ".*Instance" snapshots resources whose asset type ends with "Instance".
  • ".*Instance.*" snapshots resources whose asset type contains "Instance".

See RE2 for all supported regular expression syntax. If the regular expression does not match any supported asset type, an INVALID_ARGUMENT error will be returned.

If specified, only matching assets will be returned, otherwise, it will snapshot all asset types. See Introduction to Cloud Asset Inventory for all supported asset types.
contentType

enum (ContentType)

Asset content type. If not specified, no content but the asset name will be returned.
pageSize

integer

The maximum number of assets to be returned in a single response. Default is 100, minimum is 1, and maximum is 1000.
pageToken

string

The nextPageToken returned from the previous ListAssetsResponse, or unspecified for the first ListAssetsRequest. It is a continuation of a prior assets.list call, and the API should return the next page of assets.

Request body

The request body must be empty.

Response body

If successful, the response body contains data with the following structure:

assets.list response.

}
Fields
readTime

string (Timestamp format)

Time the snapshot was taken.

A timestamp in RFC3339 UTC "Zulu" format, with nanosecond resolution and up to nine fractional digits. Examples: "2014-10-02T15:01:23Z" and "2014-10-02T15:01:23.045123456Z".
assets[]

object (Asset)

Assets.
nextPageToken

string

Token to retrieve the next page of results. It expires 72 hours after the page token for the first page is generated. Set to empty if there are no remaining results.

Authorization Scopes

Requires the following OAuth scope:

  • https://www.googleapis.com/auth/cloud-platform

For more information, see the Authentication Overview.

ContentType

Asset content type.

Enums
CONTENT_TYPE_UNSPECIFIED Unspecified content type.
RESOURCE Resource metadata.
IAM_POLICY The actual IAM policy set on a resource.
ORG_POLICY The Cloud Organization Policy set on an asset.
ACCESS_POLICY The Cloud Access context mananger Policy set on an asset.

Asset

An asset in Google Cloud. An asset can be any resource in the Google Cloud resource hierarchy, a resource outside the Google Cloud resource hierarchy (such as Google Kubernetes Engine clusters and objects), or a policy (e.g. Cloud IAM policy). See Supported asset types for more information.

}
Fields
name

string

The full name of the asset. Example: //compute.googleapis.com/projects/my_project_123/zones/zone1/instances/instance1

See Resource names for more information.
assetType

string

The type of the asset. Example: compute.googleapis.com/Disk

See Supported asset types for more information.
resource

object (Resource)

A representation of the resource.
iamPolicy

object (Policy)

A representation of the Cloud IAM policy set on a Google Cloud resource. There can be a maximum of one Cloud IAM policy set on any given resource. In addition, Cloud IAM policies inherit their granted access scope from any policies set on parent resources in the resource hierarchy. Therefore, the effectively policy is the union of both the policy set on this resource and each policy set on all of the resource's ancestry resource levels in the hierarchy. See this topic for more information.
orgPolicy[]

object (Policy)

A representation of an organization policy. There can be more than one organization policy with different constraints set on a given resource.
ancestors[]

string

The ancestry path of an asset in Google Cloud resource hierarchy, represented as a list of relative resource names. An ancestry path starts with the closest ancestor in the hierarchy and ends at root. If the asset is a project, folder, or organization, the ancestry path starts from the asset itself.

Example: ["projects/123456789", "folders/5432", "organizations/1234"]
Union field access_context_policy. A representation of an access policy. access_context_policy can be only one of the following:
accessPolicy

object (AccessPolicy)

Please also refer to the access policy user guide.
accessLevel

object (AccessLevel)

Please also refer to the access level user guide.
servicePerimeter

object (ServicePerimeter)

Please also refer to the service perimeter user guide.

Resource

A representation of a Google Cloud resource.

  "discoveryDocumentUri": string,
  "discoveryName": string,
  "resourceUrl": string,
  "parent": string,
  "data": {
    object
  }
}
Fields
version

string

The API version. Example: "v1".
discoveryDocumentUri

string

The URL of the discovery document containing the resource's JSON schema. Example: https://www.googleapis.com/discovery/v1/apis/compute/v1/rest

This value is unspecified for resources that do not have an API based on a discovery document, such as Cloud Bigtable.
discoveryName

string

The JSON schema name listed in the discovery document. Example: Project

This value is unspecified for resources that do not have an API based on a discovery document, such as Cloud Bigtable.
resourceUrl

string

The REST URL for accessing the resource. An HTTP GET request using this URL returns the resource itself. Example: https://cloudresourcemanager.googleapis.com/v1/projects/my-project-123

This value is unspecified for resources without a REST API.
parent

string

The full name of the immediate parent of this resource. See Resource Names for more information.

For Google Cloud assets, this value is the parent resource defined in the Cloud IAM policy hierarchy. Example: //cloudresourcemanager.googleapis.com/projects/my_project_123

For third-party assets, this field may be set differently.
data

object (Struct format)

The content of the resource, in which some sensitive fields are removed and may not be present.
