# Viewing the contents and details of a private repository in Amazon ECR
<a name="repository-info"></a>

After you created a private repository, you can view details about the repository in the AWS Management Console:
+ Which images are stored in a repository
+ Details about each image stored in the repository, including the size and SHA digest for each image
+ The scan frequency specified for the contents of the repository
+ Whether the repository has an active pull through cache rule associated with it
+ The encryption setting for the repository

**Note**  
Starting with Docker version 1.9, the Docker client compresses image layers before pushing them to a V2 Docker registry. The output of the **docker images** command shows the uncompressed image size. Therefore, keep in mind that Docker might return a larger image than the image shown in the AWS Management Console.

**To view repository information (AWS Management Console)**

1. Open the Amazon ECR console at [https://console.aws.amazon.com/ecr/repositories](https://console.aws.amazon.com/ecr/repositories).

1. From the navigation bar, choose the Region that contains the repository to view.

1. In the navigation pane, choose **Repositories**.

1. On the **Repositories** page, choose the **Private** tab and then the repository to view.

1. On the repository detail page, the console defaults to the **Images** view. Use the navigation menu to view other information about the repository.
   + Choose **Summary** to view the repository details and pull count data for the repository.
   + Choose **Images** to view information about the image tags in the repository. To view more information about the image, select the image tag. For more information, see [Viewing image details in Amazon ECR](image-info.md).

     If there are untagged images that you want to delete, you can select the box to the left of the repositories to delete and choose **Delete**. For more information, see [Deleting an image in Amazon ECR](delete_image.md).
   + Choose **Permissions** to view the repository policies that are applied to the repository. For more information, see [Private repository policies in Amazon ECR](repository-policies.md).
   + Choose **Lifecycle Policy** to view the lifecycle policy rules that are applied to the repository. The lifecycle events history is also viewed here. For more information, see [Automate the cleanup of images by using lifecycle policies in Amazon ECR](LifecyclePolicies.md).
   + Choose **Tags** to view the metadata tags that are applied to the repository.
