# All Assets

{% hint style="info" %}

### Note

Ingesting and Viewing Cloud Compute Instances for Cloud Inventory Assets requires a Cortex XDR Pro per GB license.
{% endhint %}

The **All Assets** page enables you to view all your assets from various asset categories. Each asset is available in Cortex XDR in different ways depending on the asset category and Cortex XDR license as explained in the following table.

| Asset Category         | Availability in Cortex XDR                                                                                                                                                                                                                              | License Required          |

| Cloud compute instance | Requires configuring either a [Cloud Inventory data collector](/cortex-xdr-3.x/cortex-xdr-3.x-documentation/data-management/data-ingestion/external-data-ingestion/ingest-cloud-assets.md) or Agents that are installed on the Cloud Compute Instances. | Cortex XDR Pro TB license |

To view the **All Assets** page, select Assets → **Asset Inventory**.

By default, the **All Assets** page displays all assets according to the asset name. To search for specific assets, use the filters above the results table to narrow the results. You can export the tables and respective asset views to a tab-separated values (TSV) file. From the **All Assets** page, you can also manage the asset's output using the right-click pivot menu.

The **All Assets** table is comprised of a number of common fields that are available when viewing any of the Specific Assets pages. The **TYPE** field is only available in the **All Assets** table as this field determines the **Specific Assets** categories, and can be used to filter the different types of assets from the entire list of assets.

When any row in the table is selected, a side panel on the right with greater details is displayed, where you can view additional data divided by sections. The section heading names and data displayed change depending on the source of the assets.

The following table describes the fields that are available when viewing **All Assets** in alphabetical order.

Certain fields are exposed and hidden by default. An asterisk (\*) is beside every field that is exposed by default.

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
