In the **Inventory**, Cortex Xpanse provides a comprehensive inventory of all the discoverable assets for your organization. The Inventory is organized into a tab for **Unified Inventory** and a tab for each asset types. Each tab in the **Inventory** presents a table view of the relevant assets with key information about each asset. Asset table views support extensive search, filtering, and sorting capabilities, enabling you to more efficiently identify, prioritize, and remediate security issues. View additional details about any asset by clicking on the row for that asset in list view. The asset details will open in a separate pane to the right of the list view. Perform specific actions on assets (such as adding or removing asset tags) by right-clicking on the asset in the list view and selecting from the available options. ## Add or remove assets To add or remove assets from your asset map, see [Upload or remove assets](#add-or-remove-assets). ## Monitor assets for acquisitions Xpanse can generally include acquisition assets. Work with your Customer Success team to explore this option. --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter: ``` GET https://cortex-docs.paloaltonetworks.com/cortex-xpanse/inventory.md?ask=&goal= ``` `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.
