Work with resource discoveries
A resource discovery is an IPAM component that enables IPAM to manage and monitor resources that belong to the account that owns the resource discovery. This enables IPAM to maintain an up-to-date inventory of IP address usage across your workloads, facilitating IP address management and planning.
A resource discovery is created by default when you create an IPAM. You can also create a resource discovery independently of an IPAM and integrate it with an IPAM owned by another account or organization. If the resource discovery owner is the delegated administrator of an organization, IPAM will monitor resources for all members of the organization.
Note
Creating, sharing, and associating resource discoveries is part of the process of integrating IPAM with accounts outside of your organizations (see Integrate IPAM with accounts outside of your organization). If you are not creating an IPAM and integrating it with accounts outside your organization, you do not need to create, share, or associate resource discoveries.
Note that this section is a grouping of procedures all related to working with resource discoveries.
