Pulumi Insights

    Pulumi Insights provides advanced search, analytics, and AI for your infrastructure as code.

    It provides:

    • Resource Search: Explore all of your resources under management. Filter, group, search, and sort resources by stack, project, or a number of other dimensions.

    • Resource Search Aggregates: See aggregates at a glance for your resources under management. Start with a birds-eye view of your infrastructure, and leverage features like search, grouping, and filtering to dig deeper.

    • Resource Search Favoriting and Sharing: Save your updated view as a favorite in the left nav like stacks or share it with your teammates.

    • Resource Search AI Assist: (experimental) Use natural language processing to help craft search queries to explore your data.

    • Data Export: Export your Pulumi resources into your business intelligence tool of choice to go even further.

    • Cloud Import: Bring your own cloud provider account and import all your existing resources into Pulumi to see how things break down. Zero code required.

    Resource Search can be accessed directly from the Pulumi Cloud dashboard or from the side navigation by navigating to Resources.

    By default, you will see a table with the resources you have access to, ordered by most recently updated.

    A count is shown in the upper-right corner with the total number of resources matched by this query – in this case, we have 13 resources.

    Resource Search Table

    The table of resources is paginated using infinite scroll so you are able to view up to 10,000 resources without needing to go page by page:

    If you need access to more resources, you can use the Data Export feature or access them programmatically via the Pulumi Cloud Rest API.

    Use the search bar, row grouping, or column filters to refine the resources displayed on the page.

    Selecting project will pre-populate a query with project: which we can then extend to project:production to return resources with “production” in their project name.

    Resource Search Filter Helper

    The columns displayed on results can be modified to show or hide information by selecting the gear icon and clicking the Choose columns.

    Resource Search Options Gear

    You will then see the Column menu appear, where you can choose the columns to display.

    Resource Search Column Chooser

    Selecting a column header will modify the query to sort by that column.

    Resource search aggregates

    The Column Filter menu can be expanded to apply additional filters to each column and to view finer-grained resource sets.

    Resource Search Column Filter

    In this example, the query has been restricted to the “dev” stack.

    Resource search grouping

    The Row Groups Header allows you to drag columns from the table to enable grouping by that column. You can group by multiple columns at once. In this example, we have grouped by stack and modified so that we can see a breakdown of resources by stack and when they were last modified.

    Resource Search Grouping

    Selecting the “X” in the search bar will remove all previously selected filters.

    Resource Search Clear Filters

    Resource search favoriting

    The Favorites Button allows you to save a particular view of the resources page which includes any filters, grouping, column changes, and search queries made.

    Resource Search Favorites left nav

    All your saved favorites can be seen as quick links on the left nav.

    Data export

    This feature is only available to organizations using the Enterprise and Business Critical editions. If you don’t see it in your organization, contact us.

    Organizations with Data Export enabled are able to export all resources matching a particular query in CSV format.

    For a more detailed description of CSV schema, see the export documentation.

    APIs

    See the Pulumi Cloud REST API for full details of the API endpoint to query and export resources.
