View resources

You view all attributes for Integrated IaC and Cloud resources in an Organization to inventory all of your resources across cloud provider accounts, or see the recorded state of any resource during the most recent scan.

View all resources

To list all resources in an organization, send a request to the /cloud/resources endpoint in the below format:

curl -X GET \
  'https://api.snyk.io/rest/orgs/YOUR-ORGANIZATION-ID/cloud/resources?version=2022-12-21~beta' \
  -H 'Authorization: token YOUR-API-TOKEN'

Understand the API response

Snyk returns a JSON document containing information about all resources in the Organization. For example:

Below are some key attributes from the API response:

Attribute
Definition

data.id

Resource ID

data.attributes.environment_id

ID of the environment containing the resource

data.attributes.scan_id

ID of the scan where this resource was first detected

data.attributes.resource_type

Resource type

data.attributes.native_id

Cloud provider's unique identifier for the resource; for AWS, the Amazon Resource Name (ARN)

data.attributes.state

Resource attributes at the time of the most recent scan

Filter resource list

Query parameters allow you to filter the list of resources.

For example, to return resources from a single environment, add environment_id=YOUR-ENVIRONMENT-ID to the URL:

curl -X GET \
  'https://api.snyk.io/rest/orgs/YOUR-ORGANIZATION-ID/cloud/resources?environment_id=YOUR-ENVIRONMENT-ID&version=2022-12-21~beta' \
  -H 'Authorization: token YOUR-API-TOKEN'

Some parameters allow you to specify multiple values. To return resources in Amazon Web Services (AWS) regions us-east-1 or us-east-2, add location=us-east-1,us-east-2 to the URL:

curl -X GET \
  'https://api.snyk.io/rest/orgs/YOUR-ORGANIZATION-ID/cloud/resources?location=us-east-1,us-east-2&version=2022-12-21~beta' \
  -H 'Authorization: token YOUR-API-TOKEN'

You can combine query parameters by using the & symbol. To return only 5 AWS S3 buckets, add resource_type=aws_s3_bucket&limit=5 to the URL:

curl -X GET \
  'https://api.snyk.io/rest/orgs/YOUR-ORGANIZATION-ID/cloud/resources?resource_type=aws_s3_bucket&limit=5&version=2022-12-21~beta' \
  -H 'Authorization: token YOUR-API-TOKEN'

For a list of supported parameters, see the API documentation.

View details for a single resource

To view details for a single resource through the Snyk API, send a request in the below format. You can get the resource ID using the method shown in View all cloud resources.

curl -X GET \
  'https://api.snyk.io/rest/orgs/YOUR-ORGANIZATION-ID/cloud/resources?id=YOUR-RESOURCE-ID&version=2022-12-21~beta' \
  -H 'Authorization: token YOUR-API-TOKEN'

Snyk returns a JSON document containing information about the selected resource. The information is the same as shown in Understand the API response.
