Follow this guide to install P0 for data collection in your cloud provider, and to run your first posture and inventory scans.

Install for IAM data collection

First, you'll need to connect P0 to your cloud service provider.

If you have P0 installed for just-in-time access, you'll still need to follow this step, as data collection requires different permissions in your cloud provider.

Begin by navigating to your provider's integration page on the P0 app (after login to p0.app, select "Integrations", then your cloud provider):

Choose "IAM Assessment", then follow the steps on the app to install P0.

Make sure you have the ability to create custom roles and assign privileges in your cloud provider before beginning.

Running your first scan

Navigate to "Dashboard", then select "Create" in the environment selector:

Choose a useful name, an assessment frequency, and the target scopes to assess, then select "Create Environment":

Within a few moments P0 will start collecting data from your project:

Once the data-collection job completes, click "Dashboard" to see your results.

Congratulations, you've run your first environment scan with P0!
